Joan Johnson is a Gentle and Reliable Person
On a breezy summer day, while the trees were gently blowing in the wind, I decided to take a stroll through the park, not knowing that this day would bring me a wonderful, life long friend. The park has these enormous, dark green oak trees and antique golden brown benches to rest upon. As I stroll through the park, the aroma of the velvet lilies cools my nostrils. The warmth of the yellow sun gently caresses my arms like a new sweater. I hear people musically laughing together as though they are in a church choir. I knew that, truly, this day was the beginning of a new adventure.
As I continue to walk through the park, I notice a still and quiet object sitting underneath an oak tree. Curiosity drew me closer to the object, and I see that it is a tall slender young lady reading a best seller novel by Angela Johnson My Friend For Life.

I now have a friend who I can share stories with. I decided to give her a call to invite her to my home for tea and tea cakes on Saturday. When Mrs. Johnson accepted the invitation, excitement race through my mind. I actually thought she would say, “I’m too busy at the moment, but I‘ll take a rain check.“ There are several flavors I would like to share with her. Unfortunately, I only have one flavor which is raspberry.
Mrs. Johnson arrived at my home approximately 2:00 o’clock p.m. on Saturday afternoon. It didn’t surprise me to see Mrs. Johnson in her stunning by fashionable attire gracefully getting out of her black convertible 2006 Mercedes Benz. However, I was surprised that she presented me with a gift beautifully wrapped in brightly colored paper. Trying
