I love your selection of illustration and of acrostic phrase
I was born in 1951, so I do have my share of 50s memories :-)
strong use of rhyming couplets
worrie's will have to wait - drop the apostrophe
good alliteration in bet your belly's and in joint is jumpin'
great use of illustrative examples :-) Brooke

Such a unique poem. It definetely took me back in time. I love the references to people of that decade especially Lucy and Ethel. Your use of imagery makes the reader feel as though they are there. great job!

Thank you so much! Glad it 'took you back". I think these days, everyone wants to go back. Wish I could've included Andy, Opie and Aunt Bee in my references. Oh well, I'm so glad you liked it!

THE FIFTIES WERE THE GOOD YEAR ,CAR HOPS, DRAG RACING, SWIMMING IN THE POND ON A HOT DAY AND NOT GET ARRESTED FOR IT LIKE TODAY. CAR SHOWS AT THE A&W, DOLLAR MOVIE NIGHTS ON THE WEEKENDS FOR A CARLOAD, YEP THEY WERE GOOD TIMES.
