The 1970’s, A Life Time Ago

In the days of hot plants

and platform shoes,

when style was bold,

and there was nothing to lose,

girls would tease

with a playful air,

their sexy legs,

a daring flair.

The ’70s, a time

of wild, pure fun,

a golden era for music

had just begun.

The beats were fresh,

the rhythms alive,

a decade where culture

truly thrived.

Disco lights and roller skates,

dance floors packed

as the night awaits.

Bell-bottom jeans

and flared-out seams,

living the magic

of youthful dreams.

A vibrant world

of carefree days,

the ’70s shone

in a thousand ways.

A memory etched,

a story told,

a moment in time,

forever bold.

I wish I was back there

once more,

where love was free,

and hearts would soar.

When joy was simple,

and life was play,

dancing through rain

at the close of day.

The music played,

and the world felt right,

under the stars

of a velvet night.

No cares to bind,

no fears to keep,

just laughter echoing,

wild and deep.

The ’70s glow,

a timeless flame,

a piece of heaven

we’d never tame.

Oh, to return,

to feel that again—

with hearts intertwined,

we were wild and unchained.
