Best Lifefood Poems
" I Remember "
I Remember way back when I would walk to school
good honest hard working people kept a golden rule
no computers, CD's, ipods nor even much TV
this great big simple world was all of ours to see.
A milkman in his truck left bread and milk each day
this past fad of our yesteryear was not meant to stay
remembering when the food we ate was all cooked with gas
now its in the microwave and the food all cooks so fast.
I Remember waiting at the corner for the packed school bus
no minivans nor SUV's were driven by moms for us
the mailman who walked his route sometimes twice a day
all these fads of yesteryear were not meant to stay.
Remembering recorded 78's and then came fortyfives
a time when president Kennedy was great and still alive
I Remember all the hula hoops with the doo wop bands
all the black and white TV's and most mothers canned.
Some things are much better while some things still are worse
I Remember the sweet young ladies who would never curse
I wonder what you will remember when you are my age
just what kind of future things will become the current rage...

Your particular situation is not that bad

Your particular situation is not that bad
At least you have food in your belly; and
a bed
to sleep in; that has a roof over your head;
Instead of sleeping on a cold concrete slab
That’s why you must always be grateful
and thankful for all the things that you
do have; instead of worrying
about the things that you may not have
Because there are people out there in the
world; who are less fortunate then you are;
and there stories can be extremely sad
Your particular situation is not that bad
At least you have food in your belly; and
a bed
to sleep in; that has a roof over your head
