Here's a treasured New Year's wish
sent especially to you.
I wish you joy beyond compare,
success in all you do.
I wish you goals within your reach,
friendships true and strong,
I wish you gracious wisdom,
forgiveness when you're wrong.
I wish you days of glorious peace,
nights of wondrous rest,
I wish you strength and courage,
plus persistence to be your best.
But *my friends* most of all I wish for you,
more love than most will find,
the grandest love in all the world,
THE TRUE AND EVERLASTING KIND.
