Short Distance Friendship

In another life we are neighbors 

We trade sticks of butter for Triple A batteries

Gardening tips and plumbers

Garage codes and keys

We salute each other from our front porches 

with icy popsicles 

steaming mugs of coffee

arms full of packages

We do not need to catch up because I saw you yesterday

and I will see you today

or at the very worst, tomorrow

In another life, we have all the time in the world—

our baby monitors stretching across the back fence 

every night, as dusk turns dark

In another life, the only reason we don’t walk each other home 

is because we’re both already there
