Anticipating My 50th Class Reunion

Listen to poem:
Lots of us have gained a little weight, and some - a lot…and most the guys are sneakin’ up on bald… Plus, struggling hard to place someone - for most - is not a prospect by which they are particularly enthralled, But showing up, regardless - for reunion number 50 - some of us on scooters… some with canes… I will argue compensates the ones who’ve - lost some pride - with something I feel everybody gains: Friendly conversations - with understanding classmates - that tend to stoke a memory in your heart… So, I, for one, am planning…if my health is what I hope…on being there, and trying to do my part. PS: I've now got 4 new Audio-CDs - @ 4 1/2 hours each = (62 diversely varied pieces). They’re listed on EBAY - under - “Mark Stellinga Poetry” - or available by simply contacting me at -- mark@writerofbooks.com -- should those of you who enjoy listening to poems as well as reading them - and particularly those of you that travel - care to be so entertained. (We use safe and simple - PayPal) There a bunch on YouTube as well --- Cheers, Mark
