Today, they meet after a decade
a whiff of nostalgia sweeps across
as they go on a pilgrimage, back into time
to their days at college.
Popularly known as the gang of feisty four.
they scour memories that drifted into oblivion
fill in the blanks to the present,
unburden their hearts, laying it bare.
Time stands still as unbridled laughter fills the night
their repertoire of unending chatter continues
as the eyes cloud with emotional euphoria.
They commemorate the growth of kindred spirit
celebrating the soul of their friendship!
Wonderful, WONDERFUL poem, mam. As always, in your splendid, aesthetic style. Seems like a friendship that stands the test of time. 🙂
