This is why I say that if we have caring and loving people around us, the journey towards the destined and inevitable oblivious future becomes bearable and more meaningful. You have very intelligently and beautifully conveyed the emotion.I believe one reading will give pleasure to the readers but the repeated reading will show them their own past.
This one is really wonderful.
God bless you

The modern vocabulary does add to the strength.

I think it's exciting when we run into someone that we haven't seen in 30 yrs, give or take a few tears. I love the part about having lunch and still loving onion rings. This is cute.Nice poem.
God Bless

And yet, for all of that, do I sense a sense of sadness; a knowing that meeting will never happen-- for all the memories it might bring? Sometimes the past is better left in a pony-tail, is it not? The voyage through the years with one who was once friend, might be too painful a journey, even for the strongest. Or is my own melancholy showing through? But, if it is, then what gave those thoughts of mine the right to be born? Your presentation and the manner and tone it has, of course. ^^
Needs to be or should be read several times for the nuances and subtleties to be absorbed.
Thank you for reminding me, if not us, that time is the equalizer, but very often not cared for, at all.
Frank :)
