Paulette - 1

I've a childhood friend I cannot forget. Since first grade, I've known Paulette. I haven't heard from her in some time, and both of us are well past our prime. I called to see how she was doing, and right off she started boo-hooing. I was sorry to learn her health is bad. Poor Paulette, sounded terribly sad.

Our bodies might be in their prime when we are young, but our minds are in their prime with age. Love it!
