Gershon Wolf Poet Rhyme

Here's to You, 1950

  
     Here’s to you, 1950
        the year I was born
     Greetings from the future
        tinsel tossed, unadorned

     Her vision like hindsight
        make-up not required
     Listenin’ to rock-roll music
         that never expired

sara Etgen-Baker October 30, 2025 at 5:36 PM nice nostalgic rhyme...I was born in early 52...I agree: rock-roll never expired but yet there seems to be so much more hidden by the 'makeup' in people's lives today. Just sayin' Faving.

Kim Rodrigues October 29, 2025 at 5:31 AM Then you’re 10 years older than me. Love having been born in an even year. A lot easier to compute how old I am. Of course, this year, for me hard to forget…Ye old senior citizen. Can you see the trumpet and the unrolled royal scroll (think of the 1960’s Cinderella) ??????
