CHARMING CHARLIE by Suzae Chevalier

Charlie who I call Carlos all the time
was a enduring friend that had an
interesting life.
He was loved by many and
he had a smile like sunshine.
I remember when I took him for a ride.…
A ride in my Mustang convertible
in the summer time.
He made sure I was feed and bought
me Burger King–
He was there at moments in my life
like a flower loves the spring.
He showed up always to make sure
I was alright–
He was friend who I put in my comedy
act at night.
He also called me Puppet Lady to the friends
downtown–
Lake Worth won’t be the same without him
around.
