‘Come what may’. When everything fails, a friend brings the best in everything.

She takes life seriously,

with a book under her nose.

The other one is cooler,

as she crams over her notes.

*

Two different young ladies,

preparing for the world.

Not knowing entirely,

what the future holds.

*

Suddenly, she snaps,

her optimism, lost.

The cool girl laughs,

‘Cross the bridge when you get there!’

*

Two young girl friends,

sharing each other’s dreams.

Enjoying life to the fullest,

taking dares in every turn.

*

Often times, she’s prepared.

Yet life, always not fair…

Her wise friend cheers,

‘Cross the bridge when you get there!’

*

Life has much sarcasm,

best to breathe it all and laugh.

Worries better left behind.

Let’s cross our own bridges when we get there.

*

This one’s for Maria Theresa Vallido- Trasmano. Friends forever.

    It’s the best way, always live in the present. Usually what we fear most never happens and the unexpected happens every day.
