Hey, it happens. When it does, I for one think it's a beautiful thing. There are just some people you fall in love with and never get over. I know...

Well done, Mikey, and best of luck in the contest. ~DeanO

Wow, now if this isn't romantic, I don't know what is, and what a very lovely senryu, too. Not only is the sentiment sweet, but the whole poem is wonderfully written and a great idea for this prompt. (I especially loved "sparks fly"!)

Forty years is a long time to realize who your soul mate is. I guess, better late than never. Like the two pictures, really adds to the poem. Good luck with the contest. Les

Am I welcome to the fracking high school reunion? Like the bold spooky letters! 40 years is an awful long time, mate. Hope it still functions. Guess there is hope for all. You bring positive energy to this bridal shower. As a matter of fact, the static electricity makes me bounce off walls instead of going through them? Can you feel the chill of a white wedding Billy idol christened. Rebel yell! Nice day for a white wedding. I come as a friendly ghost. I like your poetry the most. the others are toast, I boast. Count your doubloon, three x six = a happy face. spook-a-doo, booo...

I like the alliteration in this Senryu and the thought of reconnecting
through a 40th reunion. I recently had my 50th and it can happen.
With all of us together, it was as if time had never passed.

    It sounds very exciting. I have run across some folk I haven't seen in that long and sometimes it is as though time has never passed. Yes, it certainly can and does happen. :))

What a lovely story that you tell in just a few words. Actually there's a PBS series (England) about this very theme. Congratulations on a great poem and a great romance! Good luck with the contest! caroine

    Oh, I'd love a show like that. I love reunions shows and lost loves finding each other. I don't let my poker buddies know, but I'm a big sap. :))
