NOSTALGIA
When you wipe dust off the covers
to albums, books and records,
and you start to sneeze
That’s nostalgia.
When you find recipes and notes
stashed away for years,
splattered with yellow stains
That’s nostalgia.
When a song starts
to play on the radio,
and your parents sing-a-long
That’s nostalgia.
When the phone rings
and you can’t put your finger,
to the familiar voice on the other line
That’s nostalgia.
When you look at the memories
through photos of yesteryear,
and tears start to form
That’s nostalgia.
When you sit with friends and family
to talk about stories of years past,
and you laugh to your heart’s content
That’s nostalgia.
When you discover that your
comics and records can be sold,
for a hefty sum
That’s nostalgia.
When you play games you’ve
not touched in ages and,
you start to have fun
That’s nostalgia.
When television channels show
re-runs of hit shows only you can recall,
and you watch them
That’s nostalgia.
When you get children asking you
to tell stories when your hair is grey,
and you oblige
That’s nostalgia.
When years have long passed
and the seasons have changed,
and I start to read this poem again
That’s nostalgia.
