Sweet Moments Recalled
you meet someone
you haven't seen for decades
what do you talk about
where do you start
right where you left off
all those years ago
if it's an old high school chum
you might recall teachers
or school plays or sports teams
if it's a college roommate
you'll probably relive a few of those
drunken bashes that you'd be ashamed
to talk about with anyone else
if it was on your first job
you'll laugh at what eager beavers
you both were, pedal to the medal
to hit those targets, to please the boss
whatever it took to move up another notch
but what if 'it' is 'a she,' an old flame of yours
an affair whose embers still burn deep in your soul
