Saturday’s Poem

Hello my friend,

How long has it been?

Life gets so busy I sometimes forget

to call or write a letter or text

but I do think about you

in the moments between.

A song from our youth or

a phrase heard in passing,

your favorite flower

in the neighbor’s yard or

a meal with a food that

you hate or can’t eat.

Whether we’re separated

by miles or years or

we hung out together a few days ago,

my friend you are loved and

thought of and missed.
