Jittery reunion : Mixed bag of Feelings Poetry


My heart beats faster as ever,
as today I gonna feel same shiver;
which I felt when I entered the world,
with my attitude and stood with herd.
 
My eyes searching a friendly face,
or may be a one with smiling trace.
A kind gesture today was important,
as this will set my ship with merchant.





Slowly years passed and we were together,
now breathing without them was tougher.
Each day our friendships saw many chapters,
with each semester a friendship lesson was to cater.

After years I gonna face the faces,
which were once my own traces.
Formal informal how to greet them,
or should I wait for their recognition

Reunions are surely giving me jitters,
today again heart says flow with river.
Trust your rein of friendship strings,
speak your heart out without a blink.

  1. Wow! Relationship as an ocean, a book, a college! I think that the more time has passed, the less we're sure if memory is something we made or something "objectively" true. Will we see friendly faces or strangers?

  4. Sometimes friendship blossom in the reunions... but also latent fights alas... maybe it brings us back to the day when we last saw each other.

  23. Reunions are always unpredictable, an old flame or someone whom you couldn't stand but admired all come face to face at one common ground. Many old connections get rekindled and a few we loose, but reunions are always great.

    ReplyDelete
  24. I cant help but get nostalgic.. I am taken back to my college days and feel the emptiness that has been created with the absence of those friends and those priceless moments. wish we had happy endings like in films and reunions too.

    ReplyDelete
  25. interesting wordplay. especially with the faces and traces - that's quite brilliant an imagery and so much emotion expressed.
    reunions can be bitter sweet but nice experiences to revisit our childhood.

  26. Reunions are best time to rejuvenate and relive your youth and childhood.I found all my school friends after 35 years and we had a reunion at my house.My happiest days were back again.

    ReplyDelete
  27. Yes reunions can give jitters! Though because of social media, one has been more in touch than previous times. So some level of relationships have been maintained.

    ReplyDelete
  28. Very nicely expressed, Reunions can be tricky I guess. While some friendships survive time and years and it may be the same as the day when you left off. And others could be like complete strangers

    ReplyDelete
