I am posting this here to try and get help finishing it. Paula Finn wrote what is here so far and she gave me permission to post this .

I need a class reunion poem. Something about the past and how we drift away from old friends then return again to share in our success stories etc...etc

Anyway this is what she came up with....

Looking back across the years
at faces from my past
Stories from my younger days
the memories made to last

Faded pictures in a box
souveniers of days gone by
I've often looked back on my youth
and had to wonder why

Old friends no longer in touch
Old loves haunting me still
Why do I miss them all so much
Why oh why is this such a big deal

I miss the freedom of schoolnight dance
I yearn for the feel of a Homecoming game
What would I do different if given the chance
Probably nothing...I would do it the same

These old friends from highschool days of old
Have tasted the world to become what they are
I can see all the stories that will be told
We will all travel from near and afar


****This is all I came up with and I dont even know if it is what you are looking for but use it if you wish and if not that is fine as well.  Good luck at your reunion and enjoy it much.
