Do You Remember The 1960s?

You danced the night away, No sleep did you get. When you came home, Stumbling alone. You swore to do no more. Dressed again, wearing trim, To dance you went again! To dance and sway, The night away. Came stumbling home again. Sing and dance, All night to prance Your beau to hold you close Til time to go You kissed your beau; Each week you swore To dance no more Your clothes did look so fine, Your face you had to show Your moves did shine The boys so shy, With princess nigh, Drinks did pass Until at last Homeward you would go Hmmm... @jaboUK not great, but it will work. It still needs polishing, hon. BTW, I like your poem very well, hon!

@jabouk I pity kids of the present age who'll never know what fun the 60s were. Still, my daughters still know how to wear dresses that are not designed for bending in. Excellent poem.

Punk rockers, polka dot bell bottoms, waistcoats and bob hair

Oh, yes! Boogie Woogie and Rock'n Roll. Bill Haley: Rock Around The Clock Wanda Jackson: Let's Have A Party Elvis! Easy Rider!

Burning your bra and women's rights were big in the 60's, i graduated in 63, Great fun and we were so innocent....

Mini skirts, yes...go-go boots, no..but I had some slave girl sandals that wrapped around my legs to the knee. Just at the end of the sixties, early seventies, don't forget the hot pants.

Those were the days of great singers too. The Beatles is the most popular then, and still is the most popular group! 60s is really an amazing decade.

No..I don't remember much of that era..I was in school.

How did I miss this one? Yes. 60's had their charm. It was no different here except I did not dance. I thought I would have my first dance with my beloved who later I came to know never danced (lol)

I remember so well the 1960s, my favorite years. I wore the mini skirts, but my parents did not appreciate at all.

I was a little kid then. I liked riding bikes with no helmets, growing up to good music (like Cream and Three Dog Night) and playing football with friends after school.

The nineteen sixties were top shelf. We were so free and happy. I learned to walk and feed myself And get by without my nappy!

Love it. Yes, I remember the 1960's when I was a college student, a flower child, an anti-war demonstrator and more! Charming poem ... and, yes, I wore bell bottoms!

Great poem, love that last line

I was not born until 1971. I know a lot of the songs that was popular in those days though, but they were golden oldies in my day. LOL

I really love this poem.

born in 62 so I was just 7 when the decade ended so few memories but a great love of 60's culture

I do so remember the 60's. It was the best of times and so were the 70's.

I remember this very well .My vintage.Bell Bottom trouser.Good poem there

You're not a'kidding about the bladder. That's a rarity for me to have an all nighter in that regard. I wasn't really aware of the hippy movement until I got older, and by then I didn't really care too much.
