Popsicles, Icicles

The joy of the fifties and early sixties

when we thought life was simple

and went on forever. Drive in movies, 

sock hops, teen romance, protected

by daddy man, mowing the lawn, ice

cream while watching Jackie Gleason,

hot dogs at Dog-and-Suds, the blond

girl that walked past my house and 

drove me crazy.

People were dying in wars all over the 

world, but we had no idea. We felt 

special, protected, privileged, and we 

were....the USA had won the lottery

of who's on top and we thought it was

heaven.

Look at it now...just another dream.
