A collection of poems written by a woman born in 1930. She has seen many changes in her lifetime and often makes comments about contemporary life. Of course, she is opinionated but feels that if you have reached this age and do not have opinions, what in the world have you been thinking about? The author has noticed that although children who grew up in the Depression era were living in desperately hard times, they often have fond memories of their old neighborhoods and those times. She has concluded that the good old days are any old days when we were young and lived in childhoods neighborhood. Their parents were the ones who experienced the hardships. Most of the poems have been published in Vintage Views which is the newspaper published by the Older Persons Commission of Rochester, Michigan, which is a city near the authors home. It is widely distributed in the city and she feels fortunate to be on the staff.
