We battled the sun
With its ruthless searing stare
Foils school drop-off

Cats wear shocked faces
They watch neighbor dog, Eddie
Stroll through their back door

Tonight we gathered
On our backyard patio
Connect random friends

As I took work calls
The cat perched on my shoulder
Misses college girl

With a food truck near
We grabbed tacos, sat outside
And lured in a friend

A social Tuesday
Brings me back to random friends
Grateful for my peeps

They sever the road
To cut off their new neighbors
Small town Wisconsin

At the same table
We sat at decades ago
Our topics still drift
