[hometext] => What goes around comes around, eh? After all those years of hard work and effort only to finally become a member of the same dinosaur club that our parents belonged to. Ah well .... that's Progress!
[bodytext] => **** Now I'm not one to criticize or denigrate the youth; there was a time when I was one - and isn't that the truth. In the liberating sixties, wearing painful drainpipe trews and tapered boots as sharp as spears on socks that sang the blues. Music was the life-force on every youthful breath telling us that 'status quo' meant stagnancy and death. 'The times they are a changin' chanted Dylan - right on cue. Though I don't recall him telling us what they'd be changing to. We railed against and reprimanded unsuspecting mothers, scathing fathers, domestication, and even one another. Rejection and rebellion dragooned their halcyon rut and strongly favoured Rule and Power should wear a Beatles cut. With quietude and fortitude my parents found the cure .... ''Now son, we love you more than life, of that you can be sure. You're free to go, find a job, pay all your contributions, so seize the day whilst having all the answers and solutions!'' **** [comments] => 9 [counter] => 330 [topic] => 21 [informant] => spud [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Lifepoems )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
