REACQUAINTED

REACQUAINTED

Roger A. Davis

Just today, called a long ago pal
Been forty years since, wow!
Our conversation went as if we had talked yesterday
Childhood friendships reacquainted never fade away

Oh yes, there was news of friends and families
And an exchange of health and life’s calamities
Stories of our teenage good times
And I shared how now days I write rhymes

We visited thirty minutes or more
We talked of those who have passed on before
It reminded me to write this hint to you
To have this joy, their days and yours may be few

So go to a class reunion or make a call
And experience time’s magically fading fall
Remember again, friends, do not stall
Procrastination leads to never making it at all
