Nan

We had so much fun, didn't we nan !
You were my bestest friend.
Getting up to mischief, any problem we could mend.
Rolling on the floor with laughter, tears streaming down our face.

How lucky was I, that you were mine, we had no time to waste.
Caravanning holidays, a great time by the sea. 
Paddling, building castles, you, mum and me.

I still love sweetcorn relish, you put in cheese sarnies for our tea. I wish I knew back then there is no eternity.

Then as I grew older, I could see that you did too
That didn't change our friendship, but I was scared of loosing you.
On that night you had to leave, in my sleep you visited me. 
Your face so bright and close to mine. You were smiling.
Thankyou, for such a great time !
