Reunions
I haven't seen my old hometown in more than fifty years.
I wonder what is coming down and will it muster fears.
I haven't seen my old classmate in more than fifty years.
I wonder how our paths relate and will it prove veneers.
I haven't seen my old sweetheart in more than fifty years.
I wonder if we're poles apart and will it produce tears.
I haven't seen my old neighbor in more than fifty years.
I wonder who does the labor and will it rival peers.
I haven't seen my old guru in more than fifty years.
I wonder when the spirit grew and will it avoid veers.
I haven't seen my old friend Joe in more than fifty years.
I wonder where excursions go and will it find frontiers.
I haven't seen my old desire in more than fifty years.
I wonder why love catches fire and will it lead to cheers.
