When I was a boy, life was simple, <br />television was in black and white; just like <br />the morning and evening newspapers were. <br />Both clear concise and to the point. They covered <br />local fires and cats stuck in the trees, <br />the war in Korea or where the Queen or Pope <br />were visiting that week. <br />But the major difference between then and now…. <br />When I was a boy, they didn’t make up the News, <br />they only reported it. <br /> <br />2008 © T Sheridan<br /><br />Ted Sheridan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/oil-could-reach-500-00-a-barrel-and-death-tolls-could-rise-in-the-millions-if-global-warming-isn-t-stopped/
