Mi Amigo, Jose

Lisa R. Strong
I have a special friend;
His name is Jose;
Named after my favorite saint;
A man who could be my son;
But he is more like the big brother;
That I never had;
He is always treats me with respect;
And never says negative things;
When I am down and feeling low;
He finds a way to make me feel better;
With his wide smile, or a warm, friendly hug;
He has Jesus in his heart;
And it shows in many ways;
I have never heard him raise his voice;
And he has a patient and generous heart;
Always loving, always giving;
I wish that I could be more like him;
God has truly blessed me with his friendship;
Gracias, papa Dios;
Ti aimo mi amigo, Jose
