Time to Catch Up

Start the car and take a drive
It’s really not so far
Meet me for lengthy chat
Down at the coffee bar

The drink, divine, as is the food
A treat for you and me
Take pleasure in the little things
Like simple company

A minute be an hour when
Your eyes can’t find a clock
Worldly cares seem lighter still
Engaged in heartfelt talk

Next time, let me buy the drinks
You can pick the place
We can waste the morning with
Another face to face

I had a long talk with my cousin (technically my Dad’s cousin) this morning. It was a very nice time and was long overdue.

This is right on point with the rhythm and pace. The rhyme and near rhyme are perfect and I wouldn't change a thing!
Great stuff all the way through. ~ Geez.

There is value to commenting and critique, tell us how you feel about our work.
This must be the place, 'cause there ain't no place like this place anywhere near this place.

Hello, Tim,
These are the best moments! Through all the Covid set-backs and isolation, pleasant conversation face to face is what I miss most. You have captured that here, and reading your poem is the next best thing.
Thank you!
