getting the old gang back together

the guys,
the old gang tries to get together,
to reminisce
about our days
playing ball,
when we were young.
and then into middle age.
we had
an unbreakable bond.
we shared
so many hours together
on the field
and court.
but now,
it's hard to meet up.
Howard
wants to know what were
wearing,
Jim, is concerned about
parking,
and if it's going to rain.
before dark
would be nice, says Bill,
awaiting
cataract surgery.
Donnie,
asks if there's wheelchair
access.
and Frank wants to bring all
of his grandchildren.
i suggest maybe a zoom call,
to which Eddie says,
what's that?
