Taking a Walk Back in Time

TAKING A WALK BACK IN TIME
                           Pictures from the Santa Cruz Boardwalk

I took a walk back in time today

On the Santa Cruz Boardwalk

I visited the "fun" places of my youth,

Where the rides are there for fun and shock!

When I think back to those carefree days,

The dreams of a child become an adults worse fears!!!....,


Specially when the music of the Merry-go-round,

Is drowned out by the screams and cheers.

The Big Dipper (rollercoaster) didn't seem as tall

As it did when I was a child.


The funhouse and big slide were gone.

In their place was a pirate's cove so mild.

The joy of riding a beautiful horse

Was still there of coarse.

The merry-go-ride of my dreams

Where I can still reach out and catch a ring

And the horses seem to prance in step

While the organ seems to sing

Scarey to Some...

Fun to Others...

A place of memories to share

With friends, sisters and brothers.
