    I actually love the 60s time period with the whole hippie, psychedelic rock n roll, make love, not war ideal. May I do that? Oh and I know you don't want profanity, I don't intend to swear but is it okay if the subject matter is "adult" though?

    I am okay with profanity if it is necessary and yep a little "adult" is okay too. Free reign.

    Hippie's Delight

    Rainbow colors
    Upside down
    Spinning, spinning
    Round and round

    War, an answer
    But not for me
    My feet are bare
    My soul is free

    Hendrix sounds
    Like grace Divine
    Like weed wrapped
    Up in sweet white wine

    Joplin rules like
    J. Airplane
    I like music in the
    psychedelic lane

    Crazy drugs keep
    Me from being bad
    So I roll a J
    Or drop a tab

    So much crap in this
    Life, unfurled
    But I'm happy as long
    as I'm in my world

    1940's please............a simpler time.......sense of family and country was clear-cut........one time when a war seemed justified.....

    Fiery Slumber R.I.P.by Debbylyn

    The seventh of December
    In Nineteen Forty-one
    Grey wings o'er the horizon
    From East the Rising Sun
    While Paradise did slumber
    They struck our shining Pearl
    Brave souls taken unaware
    As evil stole the world

    Across the sea an ashen dawn
    As Death controlled the land
    Burning flesh, raining bombs
    Sick minds and tortuous hands
    God's chosen soon were numbered
    Interred and then entombed
    Their cries unheard in heaven
    By fire they were consumed

    From Midway to Wake Island
    To Iwo Jima's shores
    Bloody beach of Normandy
    The Evil Empire roared
    But righteousness and courage
    Soon cast away the shroud
    Ending terror's bloody reign
    With deadly mushroom clouds

    Auschwitz, Bergen-Belzen
    Six million souls lament
    Lessons from survivors
    Lest we ever should forget
    In infamy it lingers
    Arizona's final sleep
    In foreign lands the crosses stand
    Forever rest in peace

    If no one else is going to enter or get theirs in, I will just close this and comment for all who managed to get theirs in. I will give this until tomorrow, those reserved have had plenty of time.

    Thanks to everyone who participated, I will leave comments for everyone since there are only a few entries. Bob I assume I may give your comments to someone else who needs them?
