Jessica Thompson Poet Rhyme

Back Then

Back Then
______________________________

Do you remember the good old days,
records,8 tracks and tapes
peanuts in your cola
cards in your spokes and easy bakes.


Kids knew the meaning no,
going outside was safe
hiding seek was so much fun
I know you can relate

Lights out meant just that,
we ate what was made
and grew up just fine
better than they do today.
