"Looking back now at how things used to be
Treasuring each friendship and every memory
Those were the good times, I've realized that now
Each and every night was the last good time in town"

I think one of the most important and valuable things we have in life are memories. Although time passes us by, they are one thing that we can hold onto for many years to come. A superb poem.

Take Care.

What an awesome Poem.. took me back to my good old days.. dance parties and night on the free!!.. Loved it!!!... great write Hun

This is a good poem. It shows that you take your time to write it. Good rhyme 5/5

And a few y ears we'll all be telling our kids about our good times in town. Of course the bands you said would have to be replaced with, "Linkin Park" and "Rise Against" when I tell it ;)

Loved how you explained the important or fun times during those years. Sounded nice but oh have these times changed!

I wish i could be part of that time too, well as i am a music lover...Def Leppard/White Lion/Poison..i still listen to them and same old good songs...they are like everlasting.
beautiful poem and very nicely written too...loved it.

all the best and take care

This takes me back to my high school days...good times with friends....reckless nights out, football games, wine and laughter....you've captured it so perfectly!

I love this stanza. All the treasured friends from our teenage years. How much we long for those days again. Excellent imagery and rhyme.
Excellent job!
