To all you Socialists who can't attend reunions
In Cuba, China, or the Former Soviet Union
Here is my recommendation for what ails ya --
Spend a couple months in sunny Venezuela
Annual reunions,
he keeps coming back
to this school campus
like a restless dog
haunted by a place
where it vaguely recalls
having buried long ago
something truly
precious!
Birthdays, reunions, vacations and hikes.
Weddings, divorces and photos of tykes.
Vids of grandkids on their skateboards and bikes.
These are the things every cyber Friend 'Likes'!
The book Odyssey symbolizes
Enduring loyalty, the passage of time
And the emotional power of reunions
It’s a bittersweet truth about life
Even in decay and hardship
Love and loyalty remain steadfast.
Summer air ; summer breeze.
Beginning, never ending.
Warming trend, might swim.
Tan on the beach, reach for more.
Family reunions and picnics too.
Photos to remember, memories.
Return to summer fun.
He was obnoxious almost to the point of repulsive
Constant banter escaped his always yapping jowls
He gave you no space or peace, monopolizing all conversation
Many stopped attending family reunions due to this brazen boor
born a charlatan
he swindled people
spent his life thieving and stealing
never had a paying job
quackster always had a gimmick
get-rich-quick scheme
took lots of honest guys’ money
we cringed when he came to family reunions
Of silent souls that rest so deep,
They hold the secrets that we all seek
Of heavenly reunions of God’s grace
As we reach the end of our life’s race.
Do we protect or watch over all we love?
And reap the rewards below or above?

Funerals and Reunions,
I’ve no fondness for either,
But similar to magnets,
They attract.
People come together
For a transience of time,
And then withdraw,
To meditate;

In South Africa, one can avoid Online poetry
But I did not as easily in America (USA)
I couldn't believe I could stay away months
But some of you have, or longer still
The reunions are delicious, contagious, to relish

To follow ...
some t-shirts make me laugh
walking advertisements
athletic team slogans
school events
family reunions
concert paraphernalia
quotes from Poe
some t-shirts have cartoons
others are parodies of Van Gogh
the softest ones are usually from New Zealand
Planes landing,
planes taking off...
people leaving,
people who stay...
greetings,
nods,
goodbyes!
Hugs, smiles,
contentment,
reunions...!
I, poet bird,
absorbed look,
in space,
I just think about the time
to fly, be
totally bird...
instead of staying
seeing life
flying high... !
She tried to outguess me. Thought she knew me.
She was an irritant like a tsetse fly.
I ran from her.
Glad I only see her every five years.
Finally realized I am not obligated to attend class reunions.
With a roomful of people I do not recognize
And have nothing in common with except for former locale.
Members no longer with us
But still in our hearts
Here amidst reunions
A few less place settings
And empty chairs
Ghosts quietly mingle
Stealth and incognito
Among all the hugs
Smiles chatter laughter and stories
Barely noticed yet included
Far from forgotten

Nothing is new
Even me and you
All re-lived
In time frames anew
Thread through this heart
Tread to that soul
Weaved and walked
Million years ago
Warmth of that smile
Recalled by this being
Comfort and peace
No one else could bring
Meet you again
Some day, somewhere;
Different face,
Same old gaze
With flowing robes,
pungent herbs,
arching doors,
organic walls,
and eerie lights,
you take on trappings
of one thought evil.
Yet in you beats
an open heart—
one always skirting
curdled customs,
sterile allegiances,
trivial tyrannies—
one ever seeking
reunions with roots,
transforming spaces,
raw possibilities.
Apparently, I had annoyed her
I wanted to pretend I did not know how
Wishing I had kept my concerns to myself
I had been lamenting her choices all afternoon
With cousins and relatives, I barely trust
Now I remember why I do not attend reunions
Her eyes gave me a look that could burn rubber
Was it too late to grovel?
I began to try
Welcome to our “familyfest”
Gatherings with fun-filled zest…
Grand reunions, sweetly warm
Team buildings boost bonding charm.
Dining sprees are everywhere
Loved ones mingle here and there…
Yes, I praise God* for friendships
Kindling caring partnerships.
*Psalm 150:1 … Praise God … in the firmament of his power.

Summer is a beautiful season for
'Get-togethers' and Family Reunions.
This poem is dedicated to all such
Gatherings. Happy reunions to all.
FOREVER, from one generation to another
AWESOME, like nothing else in this life
MERCY, like no where else
INSPIRATION begins with family
LOVE, at family like no place else
YESTERDAY is never to be forgotten
old friends with spouses
and new lives
long lost communications
people moved away
gathered in one room
brought together by one thing
"high school reunion"
we talk about old times
nothing seems to have changed that much
just our age and looks
our memories stayed the same
we exchange numbers and addresses
promises of keeping in touch
losing track ago
for another five years
The Blazer’s Put Away
The blazer’s put away now,
The medals in their drawer;
The polished shoes and formal tie
Back where they were before.
Commemorations over,
Reunions all finished;
Stories spun, marching done,
Old friendships undiminished.
Bands no longer play now,
Applauding crowds have gone.
But every day, each in their way,
Remembering goes on.
Someday I'm going to
leave this old world,
going to leave it behind.
I'm going to fly away
to that golden shore,
beyound the blue.
Leaving my cares behind
no more pain or heart ache,
only content and peace,
will follow me there,
for all eternity, seeing
my departed love ones,
once again in a fleeful
reunions filled with much bliss,
and seeing the face of my Saviour.

Scars left behind Imprints ,
Memories I held,
A cosmic tale
Where art thou
Whirling black empty space
Nothing to replace
Masks to wear
No joy to retain
Dreams of repetitive endless spinning reunions
Mirrored by cracks that bear your name
No shame in love
Trapped in your smile
Eyes that burned souls
Entranced and captured
Demonized your name
No shame in love
I bled for it
I have its Tattoos
Value placed on the happenings
Posting the treasure in you
Calls in the night
Spare moment chats
Out on a limb for the right thing
Long awaited scant memory
Knowing of what was meant to be
Events causing stumbling blocks
Both been to the school of hard knocks
Time for reunions chart
Years passed
Doubt surfaced
Chiming in the new year
Making all things clear
Games in the rear
Positive actions intercede
