Image result for two little girls best friends

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. __________________________________ December 7, 2016 Poetry/Rhyme/My Fondest Memory Copyright Protected, ID 16- 855-976-0 All Rights Reserved.

I like the double meaning of the last line. Sorry about your loss. My youngest daughter died in a car accident and I have never been able to write about it or her. I guess it's 'buried deep'. Congratulations.

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.

This was so sad when I got to the end. Your poem was wonderfully written but really tugged at my tears in the final line.
