"To Ptolemy, my best friend"
Boots covered in thick mud splashes
What a messmaker you are
Thriving on chaos
Your heart is pure joy
Happy playing in mudpuddles
Blessed are Ye
Me, I like being thoughtful
I also like to watch you at work
If I could I'd follow you around quietly
And watch you mess up this and that
As you hand me the dinner rolls in a basket
I watch fascinated while you infect the world
A great sense of humour and playfulness
My memories of you are happy memories
I have learned so much from you about joy
About pure mean and happy fun
You are truly a great friend to me
And you can come and go whenever
I never get tired of your voice
I never want you to leave my side
Also, I cannot replace you with another
Because no one else truly understands me
I don't identify with or love anyone but you
Which is fine because I like being alone anyway
Don't force me to move on, little one
My heart is full with your carefree play
You will always be my best friend
And I will never hate you
I hope you're having fun
But I'm sure you are anyway
In Jesus' Name,
Amen
