Tuesday Poem - Not That Long Ago

It weren't that long ago when
We were watching that show
You know, that show with fingy
And she were blonde and skinny
It weren't that long ago

It weren't that long ago when
I said I was going to read that book
You know, the one with the blue cover
And it looked really exciting
It weren't that long ago

It weren't that long ago when
Those jeans fitted and they weren't snug
You know, when that top hung right
And heels weren't a risky choice
It weren't that long ago

It weren't that long ago when
Eggs were a delicious meal choice
You know, cheese in mash, on toast, in pasta
Let's not forget chocolate, all now inedible
It weren't that long ago

But time is funny
And actually it were quite a bit ago
When you think about it
You know?
