I received this expertly written poem from my dear friend a very long time ago. The funny thing about it is I forgot she wrote it, but I found it not too long ago, & I want to share it with all of you. It's just that good.
My Beautiful Friend by Molly Videtich
My dear friend I hope you know,
I hope it has been told to you before,
that you are a picture of beauty
of love, of grace, & so much more.
Far more beautiful are you
than the flowing brooks or streams,
than the snow caps of the mountains,
or the falling of autumn's leaves.
Far more beautiful are you
than the vast expanse of sky,
whether filled with the radiance of stars,
or beaming with the rays of life.
Far more beautiful are you
than the petal of a rose,
than each shade of color within,
or the elegance of its pose.
Far more beautiful are you
than the illimitable ocean,
than its mysterious depths,
or its symphonious motion.
Your beauty is undeniable,
one could nay dispute,
for the Creator of each of these
has also created you.
Far beyond the beauty of scenery and sky
lies the beauty of the heart, the soul, and the mind.
The beauty in an act of love
surpasses that held by the sun and its setting.
The beauty in the gift of grace
is far greater than ebb and flow of the ocean never ending.
The beauty of your heart is in the sacrifice God has given.
How much more beautiful is this than any earthly dimension?
I will forever treasure these sweet words.
