1969
I was a child in 1969, I had not a clue of the
World,
I knew of certain things, those of which I lived
Through.
Riding my bike and a deadly Halloween night, that's
Right,
I remember all that I did as a kid, a lifetime ago,
And a family.
Vietnam was a reality, and I was protected by my
Childish world,
Butch Cassidy and the Sundance kid, Clint Eastwood
Was the man.
Raindrops keep falling on my head, Simon and Garfunkel
Were grand,
Scooby- Doo and all of the colorful cartoons that I knew,
I think of you.
Baseball with the miracle mets, Bill Russell, and the
champion celtics,
Joe Namath with his Guarantee, the Jets beat the Colts,
Charles Manson, and history.
The Innocence of the Brady Bunch, walk on the moon,
Led Zeppelin, and a tune,
1969 was the year when love and innocence were mixed
With my day.

I was 20 then. A world in turmoil. I can’t decide if today’s world was not as bad as 1969 or worse.
Today has to be worse.
