Life Back Then |
| 1940's World War II
My grandma tells me stories
Of what life was like back then.
Window flags with stars of blue or gold
Drills, blackouts, curtains drawn
Don't dare to step outside!
Butter, coffee, sugar, shoes,
Where are these?
They are overseas.
When the bicycle messenger rides by
What will his news be?
Of brave soldiers dying,
Of countries being bombed away,
Of the victory that is wished by all
So their dear ones will be home to stay. | Katie
