you see...
i think you are pretty cute
i first saw you in the periodicals section of the library
2nd floor
my first year of school at BYU
you were all alone
sorting through books
copying page by page
by hand
then a year later
[being busy kissing my boyfriend rather than studying]
i forgot all about you
luckily midterms came around
&& i needed to get back to business
and that is when i re visited the periodicals
and there you were
copying pages down
one after another
still by hand
then you see..
i graduated, then got married
i thought for sure i wouldn't see you again
and i went to church for the first time in our new family ward
and there you were
sitting in the front row
smiling ever so happily
alone
your poor wife had passed away 5 years ago
& you go to the library
to "keep busy"
and still you are happier than ever
thank you for reuniting with me
and letting me take pictures of you during sunday school class
even though you totally saw me
i love you George
&& i think we will be great friends
thank you.. for being old
& so in love even years after
love you always and forever,
Lillie
the girl who wants to be your bestest friend
I am pretty sure all the times when you have taken pictures during church.. EVERYONE knows. You don't just hold IPhones at weird angles to get your scripture app to work. People know. And George ain't no fool.
