Bill and Judy came back from Pennsylvania on Wednesday with a U-Haul truck. They gave Jesse all Leslie's books and her paint set with 3 pads of real watercolour paper.
Bill told me," We came here for her sake.Now that she is gone..., she would like you to have them." Father and I helped the Burkes' to load the U-Haul. At noon-time, mother brought down some ham sandwiches and coffee for us to fill our stomachs. At last, the truck was full, but no one knew how to bide a farewell to all. Bill said," If there is anything that we have left that you want, please help yourself." I told him that I would like to have some of the lumber on the back porch and he nodded his head gently to show that he allowed me to have it. He added that he could not seemed to give up P.T. even though he meant to give it to me. Trying to convinced him that he could keep P.T. without feeling so apologetic, I replied cheerfully." It's OK. Leslie would SURE like you to keep him anyway." Before the Burkes entered their truck, I handed them a letter. Dear Mr Burke and Mrs Burke, My Friendship With Leslie and Farewell Burkes Personally, I feel that Leslie is an extremely good friend--she is brave, creative, cheerful, imaginative, optimistic and always ready to lend a helping hand. I really treasure those glorious days hanging out with her. Spending time with her is what I always like and hope to. I could easily forget all my obtascles in my daily life once I am drunk by her thrilling stories. She seems so natural in her movements. It was as if she was like a firy of some sort. I believed that you both also feel that she is such a unique child-- always smiling, never gets bored in helping out and so pleasant. Remember that day when I went to your house to help out, she was the one who persuaded me to render my help to you. She always talks at the appropriate time and spoke with such strong sense of maturity. At the instant when I received the devastating news, Leslie died, my heart broke. I felt that how could she be so wicked to leave me alone. I had so many things to tell her, such as my trip to the National Gallery in Washington with Miss Edmunds and others. I was so depressed that I wished I had never seen her before and went in a denial. The next day, I 'forgot' about her. However, I knew that I must wake up from my dreams and faced the reality. As time passed, I gradually accepted the fact that she had left. I really hope that you would not be so saddened by her death. My father told me that she left the world at a young age because she was able to enter the next stage of her life, in terms of morality and studies. As such, we should not be upset but give her our blessings. I know that you would leave this country as time passes, so I shall bide you a farewell. Good bye! Thanks for being so good to me! Yours Sincerely, Jess Jesse Aarons At home, as I browsed through the things Bill gave me, I found out that other than reading novels and making up imaginary stories, Leslie likes to write poems and song lyrics. The following poem and song lyrics are those that I found especially meaningful: Poem A Broken-up Friendship Wrath kept rising up in me during that squabble. Depression overwhelmed me after that squabble. Happiness tickled me after reflecting the cause of the squabble. I kept thinking now and again, Did the fuss ended it, Or.... was it too fragile? Write up: During my school days in Hillsburgh Elementary School, I befriended Calyn. However, a sweet dream is always short-lived. A mere trifle brought about a quarrel and ended our two-year-old friendship in just a twinkle of an eye.... Song Only Me Remember, The time we spent together The things we did together The glow of happiness in us, That always never died out Oh, Why did you leave me alone in this universe Alone I was so devastated after your leave That I broke down A few weeks Was how long I took To regain my composure As I know I still need to get on with life Wth or without you So I accepted the reality Although I know you are not around with me I still believe that you are still with me Spiritually In my heart Although I know that you are not around with me I still believe that you are still with me Spiritually In my heart I will not be be down anymore As I know you are in my heart Going through all ups and downs in life with me Write up: This song is entirely composed by me. It is the song which I sent for my school's annual 'Great Junior Composer' competition and it won me the FIRST place! I wrote this song after the death of my best friend, Amy, during Grade 4. This song is therefore, of course, delicated to her. She has been suffering from leukemia since she was at the age of 4, after a fall from the stairs. This song can actually be sung in a few occasions, such as after breaking your friendship with your friend(s), death of a friend, death of a close relative and after a break up between lovers. |
