This morning, I in the company of friends,the Pwinkle twins and their Moon Beam Mom.Some friends you get to know ,even before their actual conception,and when you meet them in real life you say ahha...it is a delight and surprise when a rose bud opens and you breathe in that first whiff of sweet summer, yet it is not a jarring surprise because you have carefully, lovinlgy watched as this little bud bloomed into life, and almost knew already the enchantment they would be and already really are. Some words of wisdom from the four year old Starlit Stella,"It is better to have a friend than a dress" and from Haley ,the luminous comet twin sister,"could you ask your mom if she would let you come to our house and play". Why can 't we retain the simple honest playful ways of childhood friendship. Does growing up have to mean , a loss of sweetness , I hope not....
an from excerpt, Julian and Modallo by Percy Bysshe Shelley(1792-1822) ,on friendship;
"And from the waves,sound like delight broke forth
Harmonizing with solitude
Into our hearts areal merriment.
So as we rode,we talked and the swift thought,
Winging itself with laughter,linger'd not.
But flew from brain to brain;
Such glee was ours,
Charged with light
memories remember'd hours.
