Remember how it used to be before the world changed drastically when time was lazy and unrushed and dreams were close enough to touch when children breathed in cleaner air and litter wasn’t everywhere the birds sang sweeter way back when oh, how I loved to listen then the parks were green and fresh and new and mothers spent more time with you and life’s best things were truly free the smiles were everywhere to see the cars were cheap and gas was too the doors unlocked, we trusted you and schools were safe, no need to fear the summers long and filled with cheer what happened to the world I knew where lies the blame, with me or you or does the world just change somehow and to it’s will we simply bow that’s progress some of us will say it’s better than that yesterday don’t dally in the misty past it’s more fun when things are fast I sigh and turn away the tears that ache so for those bygone years and silently my thoughts slip back to times my soul does sorely lack the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep, and many miles to go before I sleep...Frost |

It's always such a pleasure to open and read one of your poems. I couldn't agree more, but then my kids would probably tell me I'm old fashioned, or simply getting "old."  |

pegasus111: I do so strongly agree with this great poem! I too miss the times you speak of and fear we will never see them again. Betty Lou Betty Lou Hebert |

Pegasus, Now, that's Exactly what I've been talkin' 'bout. You Got It!!! I really enjoyed reading your reflections on the past and, yes, my soul does yearn as well. Very very well written and expressed. God bless. -Bob |

If you find our "Lost World" please let me know where it is. I'd love to go and finish my days there. Thank you for the well written poem. |

Hi Tom nice thought out poem. Good job! But I'll tell you want happened. Fear not your enemies, for they can only kill you; fear not your wives, your husbands and friends, for they can only betray you. Fear only the indifferent, who permit the killers and betrayers to walk safely on the earth. It is the indifferent Tom ... they are the cause of good days gone. Dave |
