Groovy

Groovy

Seeing a Sea Shell
Necklace
Upon his
neck

Takes me
back to 
a time
where
Farah Fawcett
T Shirts
were
worn
in abundance
Riding a skate board
was the new
thing,
Saturday Night Fever
was the movie
that Got People
Talking,
And Getting
the "Clap"
was considered
a badge
of honor

It was actually
a dreadful
fashion
era
Bell Bottom
pants
sleazy silk
shirts
and
the slang
was just
aweful

However
if you think
about it
look
at the style
of today
I think
we are
reverting
back
to the 
poor taste
of yesterday

Skinny
Jeans,
Afros are
back,
poor 
quality
music
and the 
youth
are again
on the
streets
protesting

But unlike
the 60's
no one
seems
to really
know
what
their
protesting
about
as they
have
never
really
experienced
social injustice
like our
parents
did
Just
a thing
to do
because
every
generation
feels
entitled
to get
angry
over
something

Just waiting
for someone
to 
say

Things are groovy

Dear Greg,

You took me way back on this one, to when I was a young man, riding high on the waves of life, and everything was "just groovy".
Thanks for the great memories.

Peace and Love,
