MY FRIEND AND ME

I do not know

When it started

But until now

We have not parted.

Friends we have been

Since I was a child

And now the years

Upon us are piled.

His mother was

An Indian you see

My Great-grandmother

Also for me.

In a coal mine camp

He grew up

In a coal mine town

I was a pup.

Our Dads both worked

In a hole in the ground

Around the same places

We both could be found.

Starting to school

We soon found

Both of us playing

On the school ground.

He was smarter

Than I you see

So in the higher

Grade was he.

They divided the grades

In to A and B

Not smart enough for A

In B you found me.

His family one day

Moved into town

But into an area

Where I was not found.

Less than a thousand

People lived there

But some of them

Would put on airs.

My friend soon found

To his dismay

They were not accepted

Come what may.

When the first grade

Finally came to an end

The two of us

Had different friends.

But we would meet

From time to time

Laughing and playing

Everything was fine.
