The Reunion
Leaves may have fallen
from the tree
withered by sun and moon
But I have kept them
hidden inside
pages of a precious book
pages may have yellowed
turned brittle by the years
five decades may have gone
but I can still read
leaves have weathered
mighty storms, endangered
by floods brought about
by torrential rains
but no catastrophe can ever
take my memories away from me
for they are as vivid as the day
they came to be.
