"The Fountain of Youth Part Two"
Epic #93, September 1992 ($2.25)
Poem:
"In every life, there comes a phase-
In which we dream of begone days.
Of when our time was daily spent-
In pastimes much more innocent.
The daily news, we didn't note-
Since we were much to young to vote.
The prize of bread and meat and tea-
They mattered not to you and me.
The outside world could be in flames-
We were content to play our games.
A peaceful moment in our past-
And what a shame it couldn't last."
Moral:
"As you search for youth, take care that it is not passing you by."
