My generation is known as
The "Baby Boomer" generation.
We are a large part of
Our country's population.
We sort of have our own
Version of "Neverland"--
Like Peter Pan, we stay young,
And hate being called "Sir" or "Ma'am".
Our music was groovy, and
Had "a beat you can dance to".
American Bandstand, The Beatles,
The Monkees, The Carpenters, The Moody Blues.
Long hair on men and women,
Nehru jackets, shades and love beads.
Shows we watched are now classics--
Our heart throbs are in their 70's.
The "Greatest Generation" is
Dwindling as time goes by.
They kept the world safe
For baseball, Mom and apple pie.
We owe them our gratitude.
Our generation of "Baby Boomers"
Don't feel we're getting old--
We're just getting better.
