Poem Prompt: Celebrate

 Celebrate the good times

that we can remember

from before the world fell apart.

Remember the bike rides,

the beach days, the city strolls and the afternoons spent together.

Celebrate the people we met then

and hold onto now.

Never stop celebrating the person

who will hold your hand when the door opens up again.

Prepare for the quieter celebrations

we will hold in our lonesome abodes,

nothing compared to the feasts we used to hold.

But for now, we settle.

We settle for less, in hopes for more.

Prepare to dine like kings once more

after all of this is over.

But until then,

sit down, love.

Together we celebrate everything we have--

just you and me.
