Back To An Innocent Day

Take me back to an innocent day
  when hula hoops and roller skates held sway

Pop-tarts, Hostess cupcakes, snowballs and twinkies
  girls played with dolls, and boys with slinkies

I might get tired of turning the clocks' hands that much though. (Duh! How about that for a Polack joke?! lol). :) gw

Bill Baker Date: 11/17/2021 11:13:00 AM It worked Gershon, your poem took me right back to childhood. What a different world the children of today face. A poet friend, Bill Login to Reply Gershon Wolf Date: 11/18/2021 2:00:00 PM Remember when they used to talk about a generation gap? I think that what we have now is a generation break! -- The younger generation is BROKEN. Who will fix them?!

Debra L Brown Date: 11/17/2021 10:30:00 AM Gershon, I wish I could return to those more simpler days. Childhood, we did know we had it made. Nice poem Login to Reply Gershon Wolf Date: 11/18/2021 2:01:00 PM Our lives were pretty simple, weren't they? I didn't have homework or report cards until 7th grade. Of course, that changed big-time soon enough...

Mike Gentile Date: 11/17/2021 5:36:00 AM I love your innocent couplet Gershon ! Such fond memories evoked, we must be similar in age ( and wisdom, lol) Happy Wednesday ! Login to Reply Gershon Wolf Date: 11/18/2021 2:02:00 PM Similar in age? Hmm. Are you 39 too, Mike? As for wisdom, I took an IQ test when I was 19. They're still calculating the result... Here's to Laughter, gw
