Free Cee Bye Bye Billy Baker

BYE-BYE BILLY BAKER Chasing butterflies through the grass Trapping fireflies in a glass Butter and fire don’t seem to blend But Billy Baker was my best friend Flipping baseball cards against a wall Raking leaves in the early fall Hoping summer vacation wouldn’t end And Billy Baker was my best friend Playing little league with a first place team Talking about both of our tomorrow’s dream With things to borrow and things to lend Me and Billy Baker who was my best friend Becoming boy scouts with badges to earn So much about young girls for us to learn Silly little love notes he and I penned Me and Billy Baker, my best friend Trick or treating on Halloween Both of us greeting seventeen Each with a shoulder when one of us cried And today I learned my best friend Billy Baker died © 2012 copyright PHREEPOETREE…..~free cee!~

I enjoyed this very much but Billy Baker did not die I just met him... you kept his spirit alive forever by introducing him to us. Thank you we all need a friend like that
