Down the Memory Lane

I disembarked on a journey

Through the memory lane.

Revisiting those lovely days

Hoping to relive them again.

.

A carefree childhood,

Sans any restrictions,

Where water, mud and dirt

Were the companions.

.

Flintstones taught us the stone age,

And Jetsons, the space.

Spinach is good for health,

Practiced and preached, Mr. Popeye.

.

Friendship was always

Sans any hesitations,

Where our lunchbox weren’t ours

But for our friends instead.

.

The early teens were also fun,

With the cassettes doing the run.

A life sans the App, Book and Gram,

Was bright and full of glam.

.

An energetic campus life,

Was indeed beckoning,

Where love was in the air

And sometimes untold in despair.

.

How I wish to get back,

To those carefree days,

When man controlled machines

And led a peaceful life.
