Baby Boomers Aren’t Gloom and Doomers -We Just Keep Moving and Grooving

This picture is a perfect depiction of my generation and it inspired this poem.
Baby Boomers…Gloom and Doomers??????

How anyone would ever think it, I could never guess.
We’re the generation that glorified “Just Say YES.”

Life a friend

I went all the way to Liverpool
and sat in Derby Square
Victoria looked down on me
as I was sitting there
On my iPod rather fittingly
the Beatles played a song
about a girl called Eleanor
to which I hummed along
Appropriate to hear that
near to where the song was penned
fifty something years ago
familiar like a friend
