Just For Fun

Women wore corsets Men trundled round Magical mushrooms grew out of the ground Everyone terrified Of the dragon breathing fire The far fetched stories The jolly town cryer Always so happy Nobody knows why It was the magical mushrooms Everyone was high

Lotsa fun Marnie! Somehow this reminded me of 'Puff The Magic Dragon' and the drug culture of the sixties. Thanks for making me smile... Love, Keith

Yum...Hey...have you been reading Lewis Carroll's - "Alice in Wonderland?" LOL! This poem made me smile...not to mention, bringing back memories of my wild days as a teenager that lasted into my early 20's...but that's another story. LOL! Wishing you a Happy New Year! Peace always, John
