The sixties

 

The sixties were a time when people’s minds became dreamy,

where people seemed to be ‘not with it.’

Where idealism flourished.

Where love was free.

Where people thought of life as one big party.

 

 

O I wish people could be more like that these days.

Hey ‘Hippies’ where have you all gone!?

Man it’s a boring world!
