meeting a favorite sister

We may not see each other for years
But when we meet it is like meeting a favorite sister
We greet with warm hugs
Cannot stop talking
Have trouble taking turns

Some of our stories have already been told
On the phone
Or in text
But we tell them again

There is such comfort in watching the other’s face
As we laugh at the crazy things we have been doing
We usually sit in a restaurant with a lovely meal
Give the waitress a nice tip, for we stay four hours

It is difficult to shoo us; we refuse to leave
