Ricki by Michelle

Have you met my friend
I’ve known him for years
He can always ease my fears.
I know when his eyes shine.
All things will be just fine.

Have you met my friend
He’s a small guy
Even a little shy
But he’s so sweet
I really wish you could meet.

Have you met my friend
He makes my life a joy
Acting like a little boy
Always looking for my attention
He’s the best – did I mention.

Have you met my friend
I revolve my life around him
Even in darkness he makes nothing dim
For unconditional love he looks to me
Even when he can’t see.

Have you met my friend
He hasn’t been feeling well.
Can’t you tell
He’s getting very weak
He can hardly speak.

Have you met my friend
I really wish you could
But I did what I should
I sent him above
With every once of my love.

I’m sorry you never met my friend.
Ricki was his name
Now my life will never be the same.
I’ll forever miss his gentle touch.
I hope he knows I loved him so much.

Michelle
