From your loyal heart, I have embraced devotion.
In a moment of melting, you prop me up with support
From your eyes streaming laughter I feel honored with joy
Your generous spirit shares your time with mindfulness
Your acceptance of my human complexity raises the bar.
Your friendship grants me a better life because we “US”
As you give so shall I, never to balance always to grow
Mare Martell 
Should the line read, “ your friendship grants me a better life because we ‘ARE’ US? I think the “are” is missing. Otherwise, terrific work!
