Two Will Do

I used to like friends by the score
squeezed wall-to-wall and door-to-door.
A party didn’t even count
until the guests began to mount
up to sixty, seventy, more.
But now, I’m finding crowds a bore.

Now I find that two-by-two
is something I prefer to do.
Conversations more intimate
make it simpler to relate.
So though I used to be a grouper,
now I’m just a party-pooper.

for dVerse Poets, the prompt is Number.

      They were in a girls’ orphanage where I used to volunteer to help them do art projects. This little boy’s sisters were brought here so let him come live here, too. Good for them!!!

    Good to know, Judy. I usually see you with a crowd in your posts. I’ve always been more of a one to one type of interactor. Crowds make me nervous for several reasons that I haven’t yet been able to shake.
