I Freshen Up Friendships
I freshen up friendships
even after they have been crammed into drawers for years
I revive them
shake them out
blow off the cobwebs
call and reconnect
Some recognize me immediately
others take a while, so I laugh
there are only two others in the world with this laugh
the wicked witch of the west
and the witch who tried to trick Hansel and Gretel
They know who I am now
and they remember something funny
that I have probably forgotten
But pretend to remember
in an effort to reestablish our connection
