Marnie Memis Poet Light Verse

Just For Fun

Women wore corsets
Men trundled round
Magical mushrooms
grew out of the ground

Everyone terrified
Of the dragon breathing fire
The far fetched stories
The jolly town cryer

Always so happy
Nobody knows why
It was the magical mushrooms
Everyone was high

This poem made me smile...not to mention, bringing back memories of my wild days as a teenager that lasted into my early 20's...but that's another story. LOL! Wishing you a Happy New Year! Peace always, John
