1969

                                      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.
