PIGTAILS AND CURLS

4eva friends

+*+*

Remember when we were little girls –

You with pigtails and me with curls?

We pledged our friendship would always be –

Would last beyond eternity.

+

We grew up, married and moved away,

But we communicate every day,

With letters and calls, we stay in touch,

For our friendship means so very much.

+

We still get together, now and again –

And talk of the times, way back when.

Now, there’s laughter about our graying hair

And the extra pounds found here and there.

+

Although the years have pulled us apart,

You’re still my sister in my heart.

I know if I need you, you’ll be there,

With arms open wide to show that you care.

+

Through laughter, tears, and hearts on the mend,

Nothing can make our friendship end,

For I remember when we were girls,

You with your pigtails and me with my curls.
