It was a summer beginning a friendship<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I\u2019ll never forget wherever that brick school was<\/p>\n
The fresh beauty bark looked devilishly red like a garden of ripe tomatoes<\/p>\n
We walked around in the ninety degree heat<\/p>\n
We took millions of pictures<\/p>\n
We savored our time together<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
We learned from each other<\/p>\n
We tried to listen to the rules instilled by my mother<\/p>\n
Our smiles could have lit up the night sky<\/p>\n
We avoided the day we would have to say good-bye<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Our friendship grew like a sunflower during that summer<\/p>\n
We became so much more than simply cousins<\/p>\n
We became sisters<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
That summer has ended<\/p>\n
Come and gone<\/p>\n
But the memories have not faded<\/p>\n
We live a million miles away, yet are still so close<\/p>\n
