A New Friend

Met a new friend on a cruise;

We shared many interests and views.

She doesn’t live far –

Couple hours by car –

But connections are easy to lose.

 

Yet she’s great about keeping in touch,

Often texting with greetings and such,

Then said she’d be nearby

And would love to say hi,

Which I told her we’d like very much.

 

So we spent a few hours today

Catching up in a most pleasant way;

Walked around and had lunch,

Which made certain a hunch

That this friendship might be here to stay.
