Ann & Nan


Snapshot memories of are past having so much fun with the hope that it would last To my best friend Nan, a beacon of light to a hurting world in need of love To the truest friend I ever had those memories by the stonewall Started playing together as friends She had blue eyes & long blonde hair I had brown eyes and brown hair roller skating on the sidewalk with the attached rollers with a key Went down by the brook to catch poly wags we both went to the same school Having sleep overs was a blast a secret passage to get to her father's soda shop Taking ice cream and delicious candy everything nice and dandy with Nancy Yours was are youth to be captured with a precious smile Cape cod trips when Nan would drive going to a trip to Provincetown watching the folks dive for money Big ships coming to dock the men would get the money in their mouths The island we used to go in a row boat along the beach Looking for young boys and we found them went to dances at the Bristol Boys Club Doing the latest dance craze the Huck Buck Boys wearing pegged pants and girls wore skirts To cherish those lasting memories of a time ago getting married Nan had three children Ann had six To raise and cherish the family united in love Today we are in are eighties both with medical issues Yet remained best friend's after all these years
