The Reunion Adventure


Craving adventure

an idea came to mind

it was almost insane

difficult to define


Listening to some gossip

there is a reunion in the park

filled with food and music

family feuds had begun to spark


Bubbling with excitement

pretending to be a distant cousin

court was being held

jury of a dozen


Testimonies were heard

participants blaming one another

some of it was frightening

making me shudder


Before a brawl broke out

the elders appeared

appeals for peace

then they disappeared


Listening to the jury

glasses filled with wine

decided to delay the decisions

until the next time


Music got louder

as the family danced and ate

until the sun set

it was getting late


Hugs were given

with promises to write

then they departed

it had been a fun night


Entertaining to me

as I had nothing at stake

tales to share

I can’t wait
