Fond Prom Memories

Ah, Prom! I remember it well
      how my excitement did swell

    Would I be asked by a girl or a boy
      or maybe an ‘undecided,’ oh joy!

Clever Gershon as usual. I'll always remember my prom, especially since I read your poem tonight. Ruffled shirts and giant boy's bowties decorating 18- year boy's chests. Funny. I do agree with Bill below. Old days much easier for teens I think. I miss PS, been gone 4 a while due 2 surgery. So glad 2 b slowly coming back

You must be talking about a 21st century prom. Young people today have a lot of new issues to deals with, even a prom seems too much to have to deal with. Timely couplets, Gershon.
