Two Little Girls

October 21, 2015

When I was little my family owned a business in the same shopping center as Ms.Georgia's beauty shop. It was there I met Poopsie. We became fast friends,and would often play together. This memory came to me,and I felt lead to share it as a wonderful reminder ,and the innocence of childhood. I attended a social club with my family one which icwill not dignify by mentioning now. This club had a pool,and I was just old enough to enjoy swimming. One day I mentioned this place,and the swimming while hanging out with my friend Poopsie. The adults giggled slightly under their breath,and we did not know why. Later I learned it was because the club was still quite segregated even in the early 1990s. The adults knew this ,and knew all I wanted was my friend to be able to swim with me. Poopsie taught me friends can come in all skin tones a philosophy by which I still live in the present day. Every time I pass that club I remember the innocence of childhood,and my friend Poopsie. On a happy note omne I wish I could tell you personally the club is no longer segregated,and the pool has been closed a good while now. So in the end my friend Poopsie,and I won the battle for what is right. You will forever be in my heart Poopsie. Thank you for being my friend. I miss you so much. Love you baby girl.:)
