Though we don't see each other very much
nor do we write to each other very much
nor do we phone each other very much
I always know that， at any time
I could call， write or see you
and everything would be exactly the same
You would understand everything I am saying
and everything that I am thinking
Our friendship does not depend
on being together
It is deeper than that
Our closeness is something inside of us
that is always there
ready to be shared with each other
whenever the need arises
It is such a comfortable and warm feeling
to know that
we have such a lifetime
friendship
-Poem by Susan Polis Schutz-
