Old Days Were Good Times
Oh to have tools to hold back Time!
To make the hours just stay,
And let the years stop in their prime,
Age held back in delay!
To have the chance to dance again,
Laugh more and worry less,
Relish the music we had then-
All that sixty's goodness!
The jukebox songs and ice cream days,
Bobby socks and barn dance!
Tears at high school graduation day,
Slam books and teen romance.
Although we cannot hold back Time
He simply runs too fast!
I hold him in my words and rhyme-
And write things of the past!
