Birthday

Let's span the poles
hand in hand
as we celebrate this
most important day of
birth and rebirth
life and sobriety
friendship!
I bow to you and then
we dance, joyfully
graceful, toes twinkling
in the aurora borealis
of our hopes and dreams.
Giggling over sweets and tea
delighting in our
commonalities of
friendship
wordsmithing
humor.
Despite the fact
we've never met,
virtual sisters joined
by choice.
