AS WE GREW

AS WE GREW

Remember the time when we first met,
At our elementary school, dressed our best.
We hit it off just like we knew,
That we would be friends as we grew.

We studied hard in junior high
And winked at boys and passed them by.
Sharing secrets between us two
Brought us closer as we grew.

Together again at our senior high,
By then our dreams were to reach the sky.
While setting our goals in life we knew
That we would be friends as we grew.

After completing school we parted our ways,
In different destinations for more prosperous days.
We were successful in achieving most
And our friendship played an important host.
By choosing different paths, we both knew
That we would stay friends as we grew.

Through the years, we kept in touch,
Because our friendship meant so much.
We didn't call each and every day,
Or visit each other in every way.
The memories of our friendship will certainly last,
Because of the moments in our past.

I am sure we'll spend days remembering,
All the good times that we spent as friends.
All because we believed we knew,
That it would last forever because we grew.


S.L.S. thanks for growing with me!
