Certain For A While Poem by Ima Ryma

We were best friends since that first day
We met at school in fourth grade class.
After school and weekends we'd play.
It seemed so quick those years did pass.
Riding our bikes all 'round town,
Going swimming and climbing trees,
All kinds of ball games, sledding down
The dump site hill through icy breeze.
Causing trouble, we had the knack,
But never too much or too bad.
Always having each other's back,
You're the best friend I ever had.

I was so hard to say goodbye.
The day you moved, it made me cry.
