Social distancing as well as wearing masks and gloves in public
Barry, Steven and David all felt safe
Enjoying each other on our patio, au natural ... and so
This long weekend freed our family to experience
A taste of the ‘normal’ life (that Covid 19 had so
Rudely disrupted, months back) with the exception of
Will and I remaining behind glass so vulnerable to
Infection, any infection, do I prove to be
And now, as with all good things, all six of us
Having made beautiful music, together, have yet another
Shared experience to savor each time
Our treasure chest of memories opens and
Like a music box, we can hear our hearts singing:
WE ARE FAMILY—and you know how the rest of that song goes
Currently, as I ready myself to publish today’s deeply fulfilling post
Barry in blue and David in black (Steven in gray) are
Driving back to the coast and
As was clearly expressed, last night, by one and all, including
Ravi holding pooch, we all miss each other, already ... which is why
Our family chooses to look forward to our next get together with
A heartfelt sense of eagerness, which, like
A group hug, draws loved ones toward
Holding each other close while we are apart ...
Note Lou Malnati’s deep dish sausage pizza on our patio table—
No matter where we tend to roam, there’s nothing like
A favorite meal from home over which a family that
Comes together, bonds—again and again!
