Six Faces on the Screen
We are six faces on the screen.
For over forty years,
We've shared our children's lives,
Including many hopes and fears.
A class for brand-new mothers
Introduced us at the "Y,"
Though several in our group dropped out
As time went marching by.
Our kids grew up, but once a month
We met to have a meal.
The chance to keep in contact
Had a very strong appeal.
With moves out of the city
And with Covid, things did change.
Our interactions on a screen
At first felt kind of strange.
But now I do look forward,
As do others, I assume,
To our monthly catch-up sessions,
All made possible with Zoom.
