Happy Days

Just black and white
photo's to see -
a sock hop, a drive in
dresses to the knee...

So simple and sweet
it seems back then -
a time no one
will ever see again...

Yet those old photos
show people alive -
living and dancing
and learning to drive...

the cars that now
men covet to own -
where the boys drove girls
back to their home...

to walk them to the door
with a kiss goodnight -
as she turns in and
shuts off the porch light...

Just like the fading faces
it's a time that's gone -
but through movies and pictures
their legacy lives on.
