Love In 1967

her heart was shanghaied captured on a sunny beach with waves lapping happily in a nineteen sixty-seven day Beach Boys were singing From a portable transistor wind carried happy laughter he had flecks of gold in his eyes They were in love So she let him put lotion on her back A brave move for these times

I loved the sixties- an innocent time before I knew about war.
