Good Ole Days

Throwing back Boone's Farm,

And passing around a doobie

Talking about changing the world

 

Ending the fiasco in Vietnam

Marching,  singing Bob Dylan and Joan Baez,

And skipping classes at the University

Moody Blues,  Credence,  Hendrix and Janis,

 sit-ins, love-ins, pot, protest, and getting arrested,

Sitting for things we believed in,

Waiting for the bombs to hit and the world to end

Living life while we had it

 

Time is speeding up,

Driving on the open road to ZZ top

Making love to AC/DC,  making waves in the waterbed

Getting married having kids

Selling out, and realizing that Kansas had it right,

 that "we are just Dust in the Wind"

Growing old as f**k but still feeling,

WE were the best generation yet

Don't understand this "Generation X"

Have no respect for Emeniem.

This is a awesome poem , I loved it start to finish! It sounds like you have had exciting life this is a wonderful piece. I also don't care for eminem lol lol.

Sounds like you can look back and say you did it. A lot of people miss that experience. Great piece and words i completely agree with.

This really makes me think you are the type of person I would love to sit down with and just have a long conversation with... love it.

Take away the kids and add Pink Floyd to the bands mentioned and this could have been written by me. I love the way it reminded me of days that I remember more like a book that read a long time ago than my own life. I like it, well done.
