The 60's brought us many things...

Views in verse - on trends.


The 60's brought us many things...
...and changed everything.

Fashion and music often imitate a period ...as indeed the politics of the time. As it should be ...all intertwined.


Freedom's Child


I see you getting about campus
My eyes seem to follow you
As you caste out smiles to all around
'in train' your captive crew

Somehow today I caught you alone
Your presence just drew me there
Up close you enchanted me more
With that flower...
at rest in your hair

Then you tell me you're
a 'freedom child' ...
There's karma in all you view
How you get a little lost on
serious stuff
Not looking for a partner true

You say you see yourself
in a perfumed garden
With nature as your best friend
Growing wild
Just giving
No 'one' man ...your favours lend

Seems to me you're just history girl
Letting 'free love'
be your charm
Hey ...I thought that kinda died
With the hippies child
In the rain on Yazgurr's farm

In truth ...you see yourself as
the hottest thing going...
 with a heart that can't be true
But hey...
Watch this Cuban heat seekin' missile babe
Cos I'm aimin' it ...right ...at you
( Yes I am)
