"The power of words is not in how they work, what they mean, or even how they are put together. It is in their unique ability to communicate and to create a lasting impression through which they make a real impression."

I once knew a dearie named Chelsea,
She was in fact so swell she,
Carried a glow,
Wherever she did go.

And on that faithful day,
When I did go away,
She shed a single tear,
Saying, "I wish you'd stay here."

Now she's in my thoughts,
In loving, kind, spots,

Perhaps, to me, she shall always be,
A mystery.

For I shall never know,
How a person can glow,
Like a star in the night.
Perhaps by a gift?
The gift of heart sight.

My friends mean a lot to me. Each and every day they give me strength, and Chelsea happens to be a wonderful friend I shall likely never forget.
