a hand or two away

when we played
cards,
we played for change,
a dollar or two, we didn't
take chances
with our money.
it was more
about getting together.
drinks
and food,
some music on.
old friends, not quite
old,
not young either.
poker, five card stud.
we were in-between
the next phase of our lives,
a hand or two
away from
where miles
and life
would come between us.
