My Dear Sara Lynn

Decades of friendship have grown every day Now that we're seniors our hair has turned gray Back in our teens at the bus stop we met From that day on, our friendship was set Thicker than thieves we were rarely apart A bond that was strong right from the start Our classmates nic named us the Bobbsey twins And so that is how our story begins Two young girls who fast became friends Planning together for fun at weekends Sharing our secrets, both joys and our fears Laughing and pining, and sometimes in tears There for each other through thick and thin Forever best friends, my dear Sara Lynn

It's wonderful to have friendships that last forever. I too still have friends that I see on a regular basis that I've been friends with since first grade. A beautiful thing! Blessings...

Makes me remember best friends who deserted me. I was so sure one of them would stay strong but she separated from me over a really silly thing
