Analysis of Gratitude Beyond Time



If I could live forever and
See every friend who tried
To give to me a helping hand,
I don't believe my pride

Would ever keep me quiet due
To gratitude so strong,
That it would find a way so true
And be just like a song

That I would sing eternally,
Compelled to show how much
Their kindness really meant to me
And how my life was touched!
