The Sixties

amen :)

Creedence Clearwater Revival were among my favourites; but then there were so many that it's an endless list, catering for all moods and occasions. It's true that some lyrics were so and so, but the musical talent was high up there! ... love and peace...and wear some flowers in your hair (I can't...losing most of it!) cheers // paul

Thank you Timothy. I am attracted to short poetry forms. / The music of the 60s is still very popular today; some songs will never lose their beauty and allure. [Maurice is slightly younger than me, so his mind is all there!!!:))] // paul

Glad you enjoyed, David, and thanks for stopping by. // paul

Thank you Sara; I appreciate your supportive remarks. A nice weekend to you. // paul

Thank you Pandita; very lovely of you to stop by with encouraging comments and congrats. Have a nice weekend. // paul

I agree with you Jan; they are contagious and fun; I have dozens of them now...they keep coming to mind every other minute! Thanks for stopping by. hugs // paul

Many thanks for your sweet comments, Anne Lise; you're an angel:) /x/ paul

Thank you Andrea; that middle one was my fave one too. The sixties bring great memories....teenage years!:) // paul

Thank you Arabelle; had a look to see if you too had a footle entry, but failed to find one; found a lovely haiku about the butterfly instead!!:) hugs. // paul

Thank you Richard; the Sixties provide ample material to write about! // paul

Thanks for stopping by, Carrie. Yes, they were turbulent times, but lovely flowers managed to grow as well among the many thorns! // paul

Hi Olive_eloi! Lovely surprise! Glad I got you thinking:) It's lovely to be back on Soup, although I can't deny that I enjoyed my holiday! Thank you for the lovely welcome!:) cu // paul

You are right Dr. The Sixties are rich in history....political...artistic, etc. // paul

Thank you Anne Lise! Love & Peace to you too:) Thank you for stopping by; may you also have a lovely day. /x/ paul

Hi Carolyn! Glad you like my Sixties Footles:) We both lived those fascinating years that so effected our lives; and I still recall them with a feeling of joy and freedom. Who can forget the Berlin Wall and the Cold War? Gorbachev did a lot later on to remedy the situation...I well remember when Bush & Gorbachev met in Malta to declare an end to hostilities. [Oh! and I can picture Carolyn with flowers in her hair:)] Love & Peace // paul

Thank you Suzanne; glad you find this set to your liking. (I have read your entry and sent you soupmail.) Yes, they are fun, but not as simple as they might appear. Have a nice day. // paul

Ahhhh!!! that must have been a vintage year:))) ... one to remember!! :) [1967 was eventful for me...mixed heartbeats.]

Remember 1967 then...if you must remember...I was born then! :)

Hi Eileen! The Sixties will always remain clear in my mind; teenage years are hard to forget! So many things happened then, some good, others not...but the free spirit feeling and music will forever be part of me. Have a nice day:) // paul

Thank you Jan. I have been jotting down dozens of them, but these are the only three that go together. Makes a change from more serious stuff. Hugs & :))) // paul

Thank you Tim; I am not sure whether they have to be witty or not, though! // paul

Hi Casarah, once you start on these there's no stopping! "A woman bus conductor" .... drippy clippie :) // paul
