Hello anon, Oh I do like this poem. Full of truths about all the things that life is made of. You've pulled through LOL. And enjoyed every moment - well sort of, in retrospect. As long as you can say you would happily go through it all again, then it really was The Good Old Days. Good luck - and Enjoy Christmas and all the best for the coming year. Regards Dorothy

Thank you
Comment from Dolly'sPoems
The good old days were not always that good and we have selective memories when it comes to remembering them. For me, the best time of my life is now. Maybe it is because I have learned to be content. I enjoyed your interpretation here, food for thought, love Dolly x

Comment from RShipp
I loved that the reminiscing stayed so positive. I could see your family situations changing before my eyes. Your word choice was superb.
I could relate so actively to each of your 'changes in life'.
It truly sounds as if you have been blessed!

Thank you for sharing your thoughts through your poem. I enjoyed reading it but I did notice two errors:. Making "me" feel I would drown. And, finally "be" spent. Good job and message.

Melissa, thank you. I reflect peacefully that the past is past, the future, yet to be revealed and the present moment is pretty awesome!

Yes, the Good Old Days all depended on the ups and downs of our living life: if lived well or bad. Throughout the seven well rhymed stanzaic structure I have felt a sort of non content hopeless narrative strorylined content due to ones poverty and honest living but moneyless state of mind. Each one of us has a different state of humbled poverty of which many people are happy of, living it with proudness and happiness. A good job. I liked it all trough-

This makes a fine entry for the contest.
Much luck to you in it as this makes a strong contender.
I like how your story conveys. The idea of high mortgage rates is rather unsettling.
Nice work! Good luck!

I've always thought the 'good old days' are because people choose to remember only the good times. Great rhyming poem about this topic, I agree with both you and the sign. Enjoyed this and good luck in the contest.
cheers.
