Birthday Lunch Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Relaxing, enjoying lunch with a friend, talking, laughing, reminiscing.
Life seems to be contented, surrounding us with it's loveliness.
Family members dying, others becoming pregnant, altogether growing up and closer with each year.
Eating lunch, looking around, hearing the loudness of many voices blended.
Sitting across from one another, talking, being friends, hearts joined by our souls, a wonderful afternoon just being ourselves.
Relaxing, enjoying lunch, knowing soon we won't be seeing each other again.
