lou & i

We've been friends
since we were three years old.
She lived in the big house on the hill.
I lived in the house on the corner.
The sidewalk
on our block was almost worn out
from our comings & goings.

After high school graduation,
she left for Atlanta and became a nurse.
I stayed in Savannah and became a teacher.

We've keep in touch through the years,
but last Wednesday
over in Bluffton, South Carolina,
we came together,
just the two of us,
for the first time in many years.

We sat and talked for over three hours
and we both left wanting more.
We had barely scratched the surface of our lives.

I will say this...
I love you Loucinda
and I cherish your friendship.
What a friend...
what a great friend you are.
cathy
