Those were the days

For fun as played marble or tapped each other and said “he!”,
these were the 80s the days when challenges were different but there was a sense to feel free.

We had ‘Tiswas’, ‘Multi coloured swap shop’, when toys or items were exchanged for pleasure and for fun
we had communities back then, not this division that we have now, therefore these were the times which we have won.

There was ‘live aid’ and Grange Hill,
plus there was pop music which had an upbeat and vocal sounds,
I was blessed to witness this era for what was around.

There were stigmas, no era is ever perfect,
we spoke to each other on the red box telephones,
we didn’t have the internet or whassup or emails like they do now
these were special times for which I take a bow.

These times were timeless… and did I forget to say they were ‘okay’!
life is so precious as I can speak from my heart,
moments which elevate memories which I now shan’t depart.
