School Days Now and Today

At 60 you hope for another school reunion
of your compatriots'
After all this was your first corporate flagship
(Blazers and satchels) 
Grandparents now, some retired
What is more reticent
is some of our teachers have died
but their legend lives on
such full characters
magnificent in their valour
deserving respect
Yet Facebook the great replacer
of friends reunited
cannot illicit enough responses
for a reunion or reaching out for figurines
