Our Tv..................[tv; Personal; Childhood; Short] Poem by Bri Edwards
Our Tv..................[tv; Personal; Childhood; Short]
The TV my wife bought has a screen ‘bout 5 times bigger than the TV I watched as a boy.
Those were the good old days when Bugs Bunny, Roy Rogers, and Tarzan I did enjoy.
Of course shows were just in black and white, at least on my parents' set.
Even now I'm not sure how much more pleasure, from 'color', a viewer can get.
Actually, we don't have the large 'flat screen' hooked up to watch TV shows.
It's only with DVDs, from our town's library, that the TV at night glows.
Besides saving lots of money, and getting outdoors for more 'fresh air',
I'd bet I devote much more time, than I would, to composing poems to with you share.
(Nov.2012)
the poem is true. a few years ago my oldest brother said our parents waited until bloody vietnam 'war' photos stopped being broadcast on TV to get a color set. i figure that might have been an excuse. it's a good one.

Only while I was studying for my final year post graduate course, that I had the pleasure of watching TV at home.... that too a black and white mini screen TV... With what excitement we all used to sit around it.... and enjoy some news and film songs.... It is such a nostalgic memory! Enjoyed this lovely reminiscence.....!
