Premium Member Couplets Retro Curled
Imagine if a couplet traveled the world, gaining an accent before moving on; Repositioned from front to back twirled; An old rhyme harnessed and hurled, finding a backboard to bounce upon; Imagine if a couplet traveled the world; Tangled consonants mixed up and swirled, still holding it down prose's guardian; Repositioned from front to back twirled; Keeping every dialect preserved, poetry similar...

In Retro Style
She can hear Elvis Presley in her earphones, A gramophone is playing on the table There's a Chelsea poster on the wall, And the forgotten black phone rings. He wore flared trousers and grew a mustache His cassette player sings: "Mr. Sandman", The floor clock in the apartment is ticking, And the movie goes with Audrey Hepburn. It is always tuned to its...

Premium Member Vintage Retro Period
Vintage Retro Period As for our periods of furniture– not sure if Vintage Retro's one! However, since I spanned so many years, it seems to me this should be done! My influence can still be seen in homes. Some people often think it strange, to cling to my old Vintage Retro look and never want to make a change. So pleased my unique period...

Premium Member My Avocado Fridge
Our house was built in 'sixty-eight, a long bi-level, brick, and white. A retro queen I was those days, and avocado made it right. The kitchen was my favored place – appliances in "sixties" green; refrigerator, matching stove, completed well that...

Retro-Introspective
My life has travelled roads less taken, a tumbleweed, east, west, north and south, all around the world. Sprouting, enticing horizons beckoned, each just as fair, opened to discover by youthful emancipation from entangled roots. Never an answer to who my grown up would be, endless opportunities, challenges and changes, in effect, constrained ever looking back. Well along nearly...

Retro
“I’m not old – I’m retro” Says the sign that looks antique. I bought it ‘cause I liked Its sassy message, tongue-in-cheek. But really, who embraces old Or elderly or aged? Why, even senior can be wrong When someone’s years are gauged. So I will stick with retro ‘Cause it sounds so cool and hip. Come join my Retro club – It’s an exclusive...

Retro Reminicant Rhyme
A simpler time of simpler rhyme. Filled with romance simply sublime. An angels voice from yesteryear. Sounds oh so nice in this boys ear. A love of love for love's sweet sake. And dream's for two a future make. In today's world the past is pale. So nice to hear love's not for sale. Crackling and plinking mix so succinctly. On a record recording...
