As we always do on Thursday, we’re joining Pam and her kitties, Teddy and Angel Sammy at Two Spoiled Cats for Poetic Thursday. Thanks to them for hosting each week.
This is the photo they provided for our inspiration:
And here’s my poem:
Simpler Times
That was a day we’d never forget:
we got our first ‘television set’.
We all loved to gather in the den
when our favorite shows were about to begin.
It was family time, no cell phones in hand;
hard for kids today to understand.
Black and white, no color back then.
Don’t you wish we could go back again?
The shows were good, the language was clean.
It was unheard of to see something obscene.
They’ll never return; those days are gone,
and now, I rarely turn our tv on.
~These Days Of Mine~
