Into the dim lit, bare walls of my world, <br />You entered, bringing light and life to me, <br />The vivid colors, painted with a swirl <br />Of wit and charm, of personality, <br />With tender care, you added comfort, warmth, <br />And images that line the now bright walls. <br /> <br />I look upon them fondly, bringing forth <br />A thankfulness that you walk in these halls <br />With me; our friendship has become a part <br />Of my world now; it has its special place, <br />Within my being, life, and in my heart, <br />Your name hangs right beside your smiling face. <br /> <br />Remembering just how drab these walls had been, <br />I have to thank you for the light, my friend.<br /><br />aashka thakkar<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-simple-thank-you-my-friend/
