Hallo!
I enjoyed the poem about a former student returning to high school for a re-union, and meeting up with other students.

I think anyone can empathise with the flip-flops one goes through on such an occasion -- the expansion and contraction of perceived time, and the re-living of joyful and difficult memories.

Here are my suggestions, please feel free to use them or disregard them, as you think fit!

a. Genre -- I'm not quite sure if 'entertainment' fits as a genre, maybe you'd like to take another look at that.

b. Formatting - you might want to change font/colour, and maybe centralise the poem.

c. The use of the word 'back' in the first and second verse. This confused me a bit. It has been twenty years since he left school, and he is now back -- that's what I think you're saying. But I had to read it a couple of times, because somewhere it sounded like he had been back twenty years ago!

Maybe what you could look at doing is to change the first like to something like:
It's been twenty years since I was last here.

d. I know this is from one person's point of view, but I sort of wished I could get a glimpse of whether the others were feeling the same way -- maybe through their smiles he sensed that they were equally nervous to begin with ... ?

Thanks for sharing this!
