The Covid Cafe

Throughout this crazy time our squad,

which I am proud to be a part of,  

has maintained our connection. 

There are four couples.

Eight of us.

Not sure how big our 

"Covid Bubble"

was supposed to be, but that's ours.

And I am thankful for it.

Some assortment of us walks just about

every morning and we end up at the 

Covid Cafe.

Viki's turquoise table, outside

in the fresh air. 

Viki makes the coffee and we all

discuss and solve the worries of the world.

It's really fun because we all have slightly different takes

on the world and the politics thereof.

I am thankful for this time together

and the different views that make me 

look more closely at mine.

Some opinions change, some do not,

but the respect remains.

Challenging conversation, 

that's what I'm thankful for today.

Well, and 

coffee,

and friends,

and walks.
