Poetry: Behind the times

Behind the times is not so bad.

It's more important to stay informed

to what's relevant during the current times.

Sure, I am older and from behind the times.

However with my friends of the behind the times

days and my friends of the present times days

I feel it's all going to be just fine. I have

been discouraged on some days to find

out a old friend I went to middle school(Junior High

school for those baby boomers,you know who you

are) that old friend way back in the good old times some fifty

years ago has died. I simply say my

prayers that I'm grateful to be alive and go

off to myself to quietly remember the

good old times that me and my deceased

friend had. There are going to be good times

and yes there are going to be just as many

bad times. Having the Treasures of fond

memories while breathing another day

can never erase how much fortune

we have to be alive another Day. Enjoy

this day. Behind the times is no

different then these times. We living

beings exist in the Times yesterday,

today and tomorrow.

    Where on my porch I sit,
    No television here today,
    No light do I have lit.

    Oh how wonderful to

    "Grandma's Path"

    "I am behind the times", she says,
    In her kitchen poorly lit.

    Little hippie
    Long hair, bandannas, blue jeans,
    Tie-dye, toke, turn off
    Mushroom, cloud and taken
    Listening first to Tommy
    Amazed.
