[bodytext] => Sometimes I wish I could go back in time Saturday morning cartoons of the past I can't find No more do they play Are You Afraid Of The Dark You can't even find any information on the Street Sharks Laser tag meant playing in the yard No one was permanently scarred Paintball was for the teens You laughed at the word beans Beans, beans the magical fruit And to the creator, I still salute Most kids didn't know if they were high class The other kids didn't care if you were white trash Pop rocks & Mickey went hand in hand I remember when Nike Air was the only brand The Commodore 64 was the biggest thing Pong was always the follow up to ping Atari took over the Commodore No longer could you find it in the stores Nintendo gave Atari the boot Duck Hunt came with a gun to shoot Computers took 5 1/2's and patience to load The basics of a computer had three modes VHS had taken over Beta It took an hour to load 50k's of data A Drive-In was the perfect place for a date It didn't matter if you were on time or late Living in the 80's, but they were the 90's to me Saved By The Bell, rerun every day at three Snap bracelets were banned from the school Sneak one by the teacher to try to be cool All these things I thought were new Really had a few years to brew Woody Woodpecker, Road Runner, & Daffy Duck Cartoon memories, in the past I love to be stuck Horror movies that were frightening Were old news, no longer had that lightning A-tracks were being overrun by tapes You knew about the wrath of the grapes Because they made you read The Grapes Of Wrath They taught you English, they forced on you math Fraggle Rock was a staple in your TV diet Two words my friends, Quiet Riot It was 99 cents for a gallon of gas Your hand felt good against a blade of grass Captain Kangaroo wasn't just a hook to a song A stripper was the only one to wear a thong Big hair and mullets were all the rage The Neverending Story turned another page The Lion, The Witch, And The Scarecrow was a book Your mother was the only one to know how to cook Your father worked on cars all the time You Spent the day searching for anything to climb The 80's and 90's, a look into the past It sure was fun, but it flies by too fast [comments] => 1 [counter] => 176 [topic] => 44 [informant] => CrazyCowboy557 [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Nostalgic )

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. ©
