Rock And Roll Poem by Tango

When I was in my teens,
at an impressionable age.
Rock and roll, was the thing,
dancing and jiving, was the rage.
The music had rhythm,
and a hypnotic beat.
It had everyone dancing,
and tapping their feet.
But nowadays pop music,
seems to me, to be nothing but a noise.
A repetitive hammering,
like a child banging his toys.
I can remember my father, saying to me,
' Rock and roll, is just a craze,
it wont be long before it has had its days.'
Tango.
