M argaret is a caring person, someone to spread a smile,
A real joy to receive her letters, we have been writing quite a while.
R emembering why we became friends is no case of denial.
G ood friends are a blessing; I thank the world for Margaret,
A person who means the world to me, although we have never met.
R eal fun to correspond, our letters from the heart,
E very letter is a joy to receive, a shame we live so far apart.
T his friend I made lit up my world from the start.
S he lives in Northern Ireland, to be precise Coleraine,
P lan to meet real soon to put a face to her name.
A very special lady, so proud to have her as my friend,
L etters will continue to go back and forth from now until the end.
L istening is what she is good at, an ear she will always lend,
I talk about the weather, tv and daily life,
N ot forgetting our families, the worries and our strife.
G old is what her heart is made of, one day she will make someone a loving wife.
