Sixties Colors

orange comes and gets me excitedly showing me yellow I smile at his enthusiasm. Yellow winks, delighting pink who give me a bit of love Plaid walks by and tries to horn in But we are all about the sixties So we chase plaid off preferring floral. Join us.

hippies of the sixties were popular because they wore those colors and wrote poetry in the face of social macho illusions …...stan

Wait just a mad minute now: MADRAS was in, at least in Chicago! Ha, ha! lol. What an era! (Reminds me of today, what with hatred of the President Nixon,... campus unrest... Woodstock = Republic of Chop... and all those hippie communes in Vermont...without as much bitterness, though, and better songs too!)
