A Break In the Action

Hello good people here I am A minor break in the action Things are relatively back to normal Almost to our satisfaction Lost no data, thanks to Poetry Soup In this age of techie type gadgets So dependant on a very thin line Our heads must be thoroughly checked
We think this progress is the cat's meow Till a link in the chain gets snapped Then we're up the creek without a paddle We're never prepared for this fact Does “scary” take on a whole new meaning Such a perilous journey we're on Oh for those good ole days back then When all that worried us was the bomb So there you have it, my very good friends Just a minor break in the action Things are relatively back to normal Well almost to our satisfaction

They control the narrative on all this we can find different ways to deal with it and our attitudes toward it will result in our outlook. Hope all is well in your neck of the woods Jack. Have a pleasant day my friend...

Hey, I remember being afraid of the bomb. My heart almost stopped, as a teenager, looked out my window and for brief second saw massive mushroom cloud rising from parliament downtown... turned out to be a hot air balloon. But in that instant, my mind went kaboom ;), xomo

Methinks we were ALL afraid of that moment! We remember scenes of Hiroshima and Nagasaki It was a scary time and constantly on our minds for years and years! :( XOX
