This is a revision/repost of a 2024 February Poetry Adventure poem (day 6). Prompt: "Evergreen." I have a hard time recognizing people if they change their hairstyles (or age sixteen years).
Thank you, Treasa! I’ve always thought the first incident (wishing for a friend and then one materializing) was so amazing and have always wanted to memorialize it in some way 💛.
Thank you, Reem! I was/am really stuck on the tree comparison for the aging from teen to twenties to thirties…it’s something I’m still trying to work out.
Very good. Maybe one day we'll meet in Wallingford as well, Connecticut that is.
😁
How wonderful to bump into an old friend and have this poem to hold that moment in all its preciousness.

Love the trees visuals

It's working perfectly!
I’m so glad you think so! Sometimes I can’t tell 😵💫🤪.
I love everything about this very heart-felt beauty....your power of opening up my vision, feeling, and heart is penetrating.
Thank you, Mom 💛. This was a fun one to revisit/revise.
