with fond wonder

with friends, true friends,
mind you,
there is the gentle rub of 
prying,
the jab and push
of humor.
there is the sweet unsaidness
of affection.
long bought,
and still savored upon
each less
and less visit, as you both
grow older
into your slowing lives.
how easy it is to touch.
to smile
to gaze into each other's
eyes
with fond wonder.
