　　My friend Margaret writes poetry. I have persuaded her to record a few of her poems for you to listen to. Here is one called I Wish for You.

　　I Wish for You

　　Life brings many experiences,

　　some good,

　　some bad,

　　some in-between.

　　You have been my friend

　　for many years

　　and I hope that will continue.

　　We have seen life, we two,

　　we have shared so deeply,

　　it blows my mind sometimes.

　　I wish for you –

　　not happiness for that can fade

　　nor riches for they can turn to rags

　　nor a life of ease

　　which may make you fat!

　　I wish for you strength in God,

　　patience to see you through the trials.

　　Joy that goes deeper

　　than anything the world

　　can throw at you.

　　I wish for you the best !

　　For one of my dearest friends
