They were born two months apart.      Their houses shared a common wall.                Abutting romance. You might say. Naked, at age one, they shared a kiddie pool.      Grandparents still have the picture (giggle).      Joined at the hip. So to speak. Just the houses. Lives moved on, separately.      Some don’t; she died a teenager. Lives diverge.        Lives end Wish him the best, truly.         His life should be as beautiful as he is. May he remember the sum           Of the good times.                  Where he has been.                  And what he has accomplished. Let him remember that the best is yet to come.    But let him not forget her.

Memories of A Budding Romance
They were born two months apart.      Their houses shared a common wall.                Abutting romance. You might say. Naked, at age one, they shared a kiddie pool.      Grandparents still have the picture (giggle).      Joined at the hip. So to speak. Just the houses. Lives moved on, separately.      Some don’t; she died a teenager. Lives diverge.        Lives end Wish him the best, truly.         His life should be as beautiful as he is. May he remember the sum           Of the good times.                  Where he has been.                  And what he has accomplished. Let him remember that the best is yet to come.    But let him not forget her.
