I Saw My Friend On Facebook

I saw my friend on Facebook the other day, More than forty years ago, we were close, We took our kids to the zoo together, and spent lazy mornings talking for hours over coffee about so many things. Then I got a full-time job. I became too busy to stay close, meeting her occasionally for lunch. When we met those times, it was as if we were back in that time once more. When I saw my friend on Facebook the other day, she had gray hairs and tired eyes, but still beautiful in a soft way. I could see the twinkle in her eyes in her video. I guess I also look tired and age is showing itself on my face. If only I could see my friend in person again, instead of watching her life on Facebook.
