Spaghetti O’s
And Campbell soup
Mac and Cheese
With fish sticks, too!
Sleepovers
On Friday nights
Pillow fights
Up half the night.
Milky ways
Three Musketeers
Popsicles
And, a cold Root beer.
Happy to be
Out of school
Afternoons
Spent in the pool.
Trash pick up
Our favorite day
You’d be surprised
What’s thrown away.
A set of wheels
From a baby’s buggy
A broomstick handle
Boy, we got lucky!
Boards found tossed
At the lumber yard
Used to construct
Our first go cart.
No computers
Or Video Games
Played with our cars
Played with our trains.
Girls played Jacks
And Hopscotch, too
Paper dolls
Scrabble and Clue.
Happy to have
Grown up then
Those were the days
Yes, way back when.
