Black and White

BLACK AND WHITE Much simpler was the world in black and white, so easy on the mind, as on the eye. Most ev'rything was wrong, or it was right, and no one cared so much about the why. It was a time when one room country schools turned out the very brightest of the stars, but somewhere we got lost among the rules, and left our world for fast and fancy cars. We made our lives out of new Kolorchromes, and raised the pace to near the speed of sound, we burned our bridges when we left our homes, so now there's not a home left to be found. I'd love to see your smile in black and white, not wondering if love is wrong or right. © ron wilson aka vee bdosa

Very true, life does seem to be simpler looking back. Maybe we just did not expect so much from ourselves or others.
