Oh lol, good write T.
A newspaper said vote for Mr Binman - a guy with a bin on his head. Makes sense, yes? Should we give him a try?! lol.

I often wonder how many millions of poems are out there, and how many are really read?
Speaking them in public, at least someone might hear.
Well done.

As you have overcome stage fright, you are well on the way of following in the steps of your hero, Tom.

One thing is - hope all the other poets have interesting poems too. If not, you could doze off a while they waffle on interminably, until it\'s your turn! lol.
I had experience of that - arggh! \'Here\'s Mr/Mrs X with another (brain-numbing) poem to fill a bit of spare time.\' lol.

Great write Tom Dylan. Your lines flow so well. Open mic can be scary. Have done it myself, but not for a while. Takes guts to get up there. Well done.

It seems it happens to most of us as we age. We reflect on the years gone by and remember those times as being best. I certainly believe the music of the 60’s and 70’s to be incomparable lol. I enjoyed your reflective piece Tom.

Right on point. I thought the same. At 57, I\'m just learning. Tremendous work.

Such wonderful and true words Tom.
I think that good \'pop\' music stopped in the 1970\'s, my teenage years were the 1960\'s, a great time that changed the world.

Glad Tom, that you ‘refer to octogenarians as being a good age’ and will ignore the hill in the interests of a harmonious relationship.
My only point is that, despite all the fun I had in reading your poem (plenty), I must insist that times in the sixties and seventies were easier and more just for many of that generation, although not for all.

And they wouldn\'t have had to do it at all, and I wouldn\'t have had to be lucky to escape the bombs showering around me if earlier historical decisions by those in power had been of a different calibre after WW1.
Sorry Tom – good write though.
