of peace and protection"
i think that was the most innocent we could have been!!
"giggling school girls"...a special time of life when all smile,giggle, laugh without any reason...sigh
ReplyDeleteNicely put, the retrospect, have a good Wednesday
ReplyDeleteMuch love...
You are right, Rallentanda. I think that, in a way, we felt protected from the outside world. It had advantages but also drawbacks I guess.
ReplyDeleteI agree. Those were indeed the 'good old days.' We didn't realize it at the time.
ReplyDeleteI love the photo. It would have made life easier to wear uniforms to school--no having to worry about what to wear. It was a protected time.
ReplyDeleteYes, I have very fond memories of "giggling school girls" too.
ReplyDeleteYou are so predictable Doddles.
DeleteLol .... but of course.

ReplyDeleteI went to an all girls school. At least I did not have to tolerate horrible little boys.:)

ReplyDeleteIn retrospect it was a haven ... wish I had realized it then. Your poem is beautifully composed.
ReplyDeleteSo true... a time of innocence that is appreciated more in retrospect...
