A footstep is heard a stone's throw away. A creak of a twig snaps Like a squeaky doorway. Silence haunts the wood Desperate for something Anxiety is the order of the day But alas there is nothing. A rush of the wind drapes tension across my face The rain suggests play But leaves no trace. Then there she is The sunlight is following The sight of her very being is absolutely amazing. I cannot speak My words do not come out I am overwehlmed with excitement I cannot even shout. I want to say something Just something audible but my eyes are filled with tears this moment in time is incredible. I just want to hug my friend Sally we have met for the very first time But I know this is all a dream and words are just in rhyme. But I wish it were true. and my dear friend Sally I wish a sincere and Happy Christmas to you. Your friend Cheryl
