The Sixties Poem by Paul Warren

Good morning star shine, the earth says hello
The Beatles reigned supreme in quite a show
When Carnaby Street ruled with miniskirts
And flared jeans were the go tight until they hurt

Hendrix played a mean guitar without reading music
All along the Watchtower a favourite anthem for it
But the Sixties also had the Vietnam War to suffer through
With the anti war demonstrations that were important too

And some made a choice for drugs, sex and rock n roll
To find a new awareness at Woodstock finding a new soul
So Hail to the British Invasion and the music all new
We have fond memories for a world view that changed and grew.
