Backwoods Reflections - 6. Reunion
Reunion
Fragile threads,
soon abruptly severed,
briefly rejoined so all can resume
awkward roles thankfully abandoned years ago,
just to pass a meaningless milestone;
I know I would rather
watch paint dry.
So instead,
I'll seek to reunite
with more enduring friends of my youth –
fragrant green cottonwoods, bright orange tiger lilies,
swift creek murmuring endless welcome;
my reunion will be
with nature.
