Notes About The Poem

''My Fondest Memory''

                       I turn back the clock
to when my sister and I played on the sidewalk.
     She was the leader and I was the protégé.
Oh, what a devil she was at play each day,
     she got me in so much trouble trying to be her!
Those fond memories go by in a blur . . . 
     Two little girls so much alike- yet different,
we did things together magnificent . . . 
        Mom said we could be belligerent!
This is the fondest memory, that I keep
                      of Suzanne - buried deep.

Duke Beaufort December 10, 2016 at 12:15 PM Please keep her memory safe and sound. That is the only way she can still live. In every way you touch all of us--she is still alive. I almost have the feeling she is looking over your shoulder.
