One special friend lives far away
Where time-zone calculations play
A vital role, so we select
My morn, her evening – and connect!
A frank and fun exchange of news;
On COVID - some discordant views
But family challenges collide
Life for both a bumpy ride!
She’ll soon be Grandma once again
Great joy ahead, new girl to name!
Adelaide Festival in full swing
While Brussels offers no such thing!
Tossed in a whirlwind of unknowns
Europe – full of stay-at-homes;
While Oz, still sun-blessed, suffers less:
Its isolation does the rest!
Surprising times: prolonged dismay
QANTAS travellers kept at bay;
We vow to keep our friendship sweet
With chats on line from week to week!
