We knocked upon your door one day <br /> And you opened up your heart. <br /> We sat down at your loaded table <br /> And received also, sustenance for our minds. <br /> Your outstretched arms enfolded us <br /> In love and warmth of friendship. <br /> We shared some happenings of our lives- <br /> You gave us joy and laughter in return. <br /> You offered us a bed and we found rest <br /> In the peace we found with you. <br /> You shared with us your dearest friends <br /> And we took them for our own. <br /> Our lives were made much richer - <br /> Our hearts much happier - <br /> Our faith much stronger - <br /> Because we knocked upon your door.<br /><br />Gloria H.
