Ode to
My Dear
Friend
By: Caelen Mahoney
My dear Charlotte Natalie Mahoney
We call you Charli
You are always there for me
As constant at the stars in the sky
Outside my door in the morning
And outside to say good night
My days are incomplete without an adventure with you
Our trips to Dunkin’ Donuts refresh my life
My eyes become brighter, my spirits lifted
You hold my coffee when I drive
When I sing sloppily to trashy music
You never judge
You crank up the tunes
And sing terribly along with me
Our shopping sprees bring me
dangerously close to Bankruptcy
“How do I look?” I would ask
You hold up a mirror for me
And carry my extra bags
