Nothing at all

Do you ever have conversations about nothing at all?

For me they’re the best conversations of all!

‘Where do they make the placemats?’

‘I think it’s Taiwan.’

‘Oh no! All the gluten-free biscuits are gone!’

We don’t watch ‘An Nuacht’. We don’t read ‘The News’.

The convos we have, won’t give us the blues.

‘Did you know that in China.. bla, bla, bla, bla?’

‘Oh yes we must do that! Har, har, har, har!’

We talk all about us, and of silly things,

I think its quite lovely, for the closeness it brings.

To me a great thing, deceptively small,

Is to spend time with friends,

On nothing at all.
