VETT... TEE!!

Hehehe-- 'member that?

Ohhh maannnn, I hope so! (...or you might just begin to think I'm even more ...
um--special?-- than you already did!) (yikes)

Anyway, 'course we remember this stuff! It's CARVED into our mental desktops, with the other realllly crucial STUFF THAT MUST BE KEPT:
--> how to ride a bicycle
--> how to bowl
--> John 3:16
--> all Schoolhouse Rock clips
--> the Lavern & Shirley theme song (150+ others)
--> etc, el.

Anyway, this poem was a ton 'o fun. Haha! Thanks for shaking some of those thick, dark spider webs loose and realllly BIG THANKS for including the entire song lyrics. *smile*

[Yep, call me Brook today-- babble, babble...]

I can see why you did so well in the voting!

Congrats!! Great job! And fab memories!

Ah, those were the days. So romantic and fun. We like to reminisce. It really can't be described to anyone unless they'd been alive in that era. A good reminder in three lines. Best of luck in the contest. Marilyn

    The memories are a free smile from me to you!! ;) Aerosmith is one of those bands that seems to pump a bit of youthful back into today's emotions just cuz it recalls the freedoms of being a teenager (and my escapades that includes - lol!) -- wow!! What a different life and world!! :) :) Thanx for the review, Marilyn! ;) Yvette

While I am not really familiar with their music, I feel like I have gotten the idea from just reading your poem. I liked the encouragement in the poem, it really fits in well with the topic!

Dream on, Babe!!! I love that! A nod to Aerosmith! Ahhh... those were the days! Hanging out in the basement with my gals, singing the words off the back of the album covers, (talking about who was doing what with who last Saturday night at the dance!) LOL Why can't I be there again?? LOL... wait... I don't want to be there again!!! LOL

Do I sense a bit, or more, of wistfulness in your seemingly lighthearted poem, Yvette?
I hope he got the message, subtleness included.

Yada yada - (to satisfy the arbitrary ketstroke requirement)

Yes, every love does have its season and its music. For what is love without a love song to go with it? Every couple seems to have the one tune that represent them.
Looks like you have the perfect syllable count as required by the contest. This is a hot one. You should do well in the contest.

You know, Y.M. Roger- your syllable count on the last line doesn't appear to match the rest. But I did like the attempt, being fond of melodic reminiscences too.
good luck,
whitetower

Hello, at another glance I saw my incorrect count of syllables. What a fun and lucky piece.

Sci-Fi/Fantacy, romance and math; some of my choice expressions too. So, Y.M. Roger~ what a beauty at a glance's 3rd attempt.
One can escort with Aerosmith's 'Dream on', there being a tasteful hope of lover's around. Meaning for one, a hope of improved presentation and all. Going with the times.
The lighthearted attempt, with its cute feel of affectionate rises... makes so. A way with some trusty skill secured.
thank you for sharing,
yours white

Yvette,
This is a hot one!!! So steamy. Love it! As my friend Sally said to me-and I thought it was so funny-you have burned up the pages of FanStory, LOL. Great picture to go with it.
Your friend,
Beth.

Hello Yvette, a glimpse of the past in this great three line poem. Yes, I remember rock'n'roll and yes, it was a long time ago. How time flies. Nice memories though! Well done and good luck in the contest. Regards Dorothy xx
