In response to the challenge by LaJenna and started by CarolDM #sharingiscaring
So long ago it seemed
My thoughts a bit confused
Can I still remember?
Does it really matter?
Just my jumbled thoughts
So rambling and scattered
What was it that excited me?
Was it the new day?
Or the snow and rain that fell?
Sometimes it seems that you and I
My friend are the only two
Left in this crazy world
That still believe in rhyme and reason
That still believe that there is love
To share everywhere
We are like two lost flower children
Who took a wrong turn in the 1960s
And still, wander on lost and alone
Wanting the world to be
Like it was once
When it was a quieter and gentler time
And peace symbols flashed
And people smiled
And sang about things blowin’ in the wind
Sure wish we could get it back
Just those special moments
Before the world exploded
And crazy became a term
Referred to the things that happen
Day in and day out
Come put back the flower in your hair
Let’s sit a spell
And drink some mellow wine
Listen to the music
From days gone by
Just humming and remembering
Peace my friend, peace
