A Strange Reminisce

It’s a funny thing to remember.
It’s a strange reminisce
Those days before the world now
When wine was WINE and a kiss was a KISS.

Now we feel trapped on a life climb where the falls are steep, fast, painful and blunt. With bruised bodies we face the steep climb but know the steps can move and break our trust.

There is that old saying ‘one step forward, two steps back’ but that’s before the level path turned into a mountain and before the track at will changed its tack!

We’ve seen our lives change from a time when our freedom was not tied up in a sack. Where our lives, our country and the world was bigger, brighter, freer and better. A sorrowful statement or a statement of fact?
