Jenna Logan Poet Verse

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.
