131. Just Because You Look Beautiful Today

You read my words
    and I know you wonder
    just what it is that they say.
Through all of my life
    I cannot remember
    a friendly smile more beautiful than yours.
I want to be here for you
    should you ever need
    a thing in this world;
I want you to know
    that through the rainy days
    I will be your friend;
I will be a shoulder to cry on,
    A smile to count on,
    And a hand to comfort you.
How do I know that?
    Maybe it’s in the skies,
    Maybe it’s in the warmth
        I feel in your smile,
Or maybe it’s just the way
    you wear that red ribbon in your hair.
