Tammy
Tammy Carper is the best friend that I've ever had.
She takes care of me and that makes me glad.
She's nice to everybody who she meets.
Everybody loves her because she's sweet.

She took care of my pets while I was hospitalized and that was kind.
Just having her for a best friend, gives me peace of mind.
Mom liked her and many others like her too.
Tammy is good, she's a friend that's true.

She took me to Mom's funeral when she died.
Best friend should be spelled T-A-M-M-Y.
It was a great day when she was born, on that you can depend.
If you ever meet her face to face, Tammy will also become your friend.

(Dedicated to Tammy Carper.)

It's a blessing to have someone like that in your life. Unfortunately, they are few and far between as the saying goes.
