BACK IN TIME
We were classmates back in time, yet strangers without a glowing voice; paths never crossed, eyes never met surely not by design, not by choice. In comforting circles we traveled, hoping to keep us safe and secure; each day we chased citrus sunsets over horizons superficially obscure. Often puzzled by embryonic emotions, where did we fit, where did we belong? We slipped while scaling highest hills, fell short, some decisions a bit wrong. Professed promises seldom realized, frustrations a part of finding our way, faces tinged with magenta complexions, just a part of infatuations gone astray. Trying too hard to find a confidant, to lift our spirits, support and inspire; why didn’t we take a chance, reach out share a smile with one we most admire. Words used (in order of appearance); class, glow, choice, chased, citrus, horizon, hill, profess, magenta, inspire ·······  ·······Give thanks for your new friends of today, but never forget the warm hugs of your yesterdays.
