Just looking back

Schoolmates By Franklin Price 8/16/2016 Most schoolmates now are seventy If not a little more Have done a lot since high school Long ago in sixty-four Don't move as quickly or think as fast As we did back in the day Hope the paths we took to get here Gave happiness along the way Directions taken numerous As many as our class We've left our fingerprints on time And still have some to pass Some have left; are early gone Our memories see their faces Thoughts still linger of them And how they ran their races Be grateful as you read this That you have more race to run It's time to slow the tempo And concentrate on having fun
