*Old Hippies*
Old hippies, it is said, never die,
‘they just FLASHBACK!
Whatever happened to those
flashbacks,
we were forewarned about so
many years ago?
I have so looked forward to the
smallest one
coming on when I least expect
it and making
life a bit more interesting…
Are pre-migraine auras as
close to flashbacks
that I am to experience?
Getting high all these years &
hence still does not
bring back the feeling I got
when enjoying the same
as a younger hippie…
Guess I will just have to live
with the fact that I
SMELL, as in…
Old Hippies never die,
‘they just SMELL THAT WAY!
I've often explained to my children I am a flower child with Yuppie tendencies because I like to grow my own herbs, do aromatherapy, make cloud pictures, wander in the woods, go barefoot, burn incense, prepare meals using real food, not cardboard fakes, and really groove on granola, whole grain breads and nuts. However, I do enjoy some indoor percs, like my comp, hot water, the john and electricity. Too old to do without.
Loved the picture. My husband and I are working our way up from a pop-up to a regular camper. Both 56 and counting to retirement.
Loved the poem by the way. Great return trip.
