A lovely friend once gave to me,
A most delightful recipe.
Each time I use it I feel I spend,
A precious moment with that friend.

I, too, have a favorite recipe,
Often enjoyed by my family.
May I share my recipe with you,.
Not an original, but tried and true

And with this offering I send,
The warmest greeting from a friend.
