To A Perfect Sunset

My role model for life, friend forever,
You've taught me so much over these years.
Like how to cut a pork chop "the right way,"
Or how to overcome my greatest fears.

We sang like drunkies, and danced like retards,
Even pretended we were foreign men.
Dressed up like Shania Twain, watched the Magic School Bus,
And played with Barbie and Ken.

We had our disagreements,
We had our little fights.
But somehow ended up laughing afterall,
Looking at funny pictures on different websites.

I imitate Richard Simmons,
You act like Cher.
Put them both together and what do you get?
An extremely odd pair!

I can go to you for anything,
You're kind of like my Miss Cleo.
Even if it's from guys to meat products,
Or telling you what to wear to the Casino.

Too many memories we have had,
More than I can jot down.
I'd probably run out of pen ink,
Or have a list from the sky to the ground.

But even when we're old and wrinkly,
And when our bodies start saggin'.
We'll always be like PB&J,
You'll always be my big sister Meaghan.

    Aww I love this poem Jacks, wouldn't trade it in for the world.. and wouldn't change a thing. It shows that even though we bicker & we fight & at times wanna rip each other's hair out lol, we still have that bond the perfect storm couldn't break.
    And we'll always be sisters that will never change.
    Thank you so much for dedicating this to me, really put a smile on my face. & many more memories to come.

    Love you froggie.

    How wonderful it must be to have such a relationship as this.

    Too many memories we have had,
    More than I can jot down.
    I'd probably run out of pen ink,
    Or have a list from the sky to the ground.

    That's the way a friendship should be, and she's your sister too. I'm envious. You describe everything so perfectly. I was just smiling all over my face reading this.
