When I was most in need
she was there
Anna
the helpful
the thoughtful
the brave
She listened to my problem
she said what she knew
Anna means
Gracious
and that is truer than true
she stuck by my side
when in her heart she was
probably tired
and bored
of my selfish talk
It was Anna
the kind
the independent
the loving
that still was a friend
though older
and more mature
Anna
that has brought me through
Her name is also
Grace
Anna Grace
meaning Gracious Grace Of God
she gives it
receives it
and lives it
When My name is perfect
meaning Bitter Sea
Anna
the Gracious
the truth
and the heart
that could belong
only to a
true friend
Anna Grace
my helper
my cousin
and
friend
