This guy is family to me, maybe not by blood or marriage but by feeling...






Poem Artwork

Been together since I was nine & he 8,

Many a time together junk we ate,

We played war with little army men,

We ran & swam & boated & did our town defend…

 

We watched movies in his uncles theatre,

We rode our bikes over to Avalon,

Played there in the big dunes,

Watched nekkid people being disgusting,

All the way home we were of them discussing…

 

He has been there for me through thick & thin,

I have as well tried my damndest to be there for him,

Though I seem to be the one ALWAYS with problems,

He has helped me each and every time solve them,

I love him dearly & that will NEVER change,

No matter how far he & I do from the other range…
