Sister of My Soul




       You, at the airport window, waving a sad goodbye
       Onboard, I, with skirtful of hot, salty tears
       I experienced being sliced in two pieces
       The airplane now pulls me away
       How could I abandon you
       Heart of my heart
       True,loving friend
       Au Revoir
       End


       

       In Memory of Pamela Peterson. I never had a friend like
       her, with whom I spent so much golden time with.
       We laughed so hard , we cried! Both very different, yet
       so much the same.

Here it is May 31, 2020. A wonderful write. Thanks for sending to me. I also had a very dear friend and we would also laugh so hard, we would cry. She was a ton of fun. She has been gone for a number of years. I think of her from time to time. She was the best. Be Blessed...............

Pam died years ago. But we always hold them close, don’t we. Pam and I also laughed so hard we cried. Nobody can take her place. I could be myself with her, always. We spent a New Yers Eve together in a snowstorm. I walked in snow up to me kness to meet her. Paula, I would have walked on nails.to do that, too. You know what I mean Hugs, Pangie xoxo

Richard! What a gem she was. I was not sure of using End. I am glad it worked. I wish she were here right now. Panagiota xoxo

Silent, my friend. You have a soft heart, I can tell. You are right. I can still hear her laughter and see her smile, it lit up a room and still warms my soul. We had so many adventures packed into just five years at most. It really was a blessing to have her in my life. Thank you for the second comment.higs, Panagiota xoxo

Silent, I left her in Chicago when I made my final move to the West Coast. She was out here once. Pam died of cancer in her late fifties. And thus, Silent, is gone forever! Life was so much fun with her in it. We laughed at each others differences. That was the best part. Friends don't have to be mirror images.)) Hugs, Panagiota xoxo
