What makes “good old days” so memorable?
GOOD OLD DAYS
Come on, transport me
to the era when it bore
the moniker “good old days,”
not for its inherent goodness,
but for the simplicity it wore.
Maybe, in simplicity’s robe,
it finds its elusive goodness,
a time when complexities were sparse,
and life unfolded in an uncomplicated course.
Take me back to the days
when the clock moved at a gentler pace,
and the echoes of laughter lingered longer,
a simplicity that in retrospect, grows fonder.
The simplicity of yesteryears,
a refuge from life’s intricate gears,
perhaps that’s the secret,
why it’s the good we yearn to revisit.
