Nostalgia

The music of the 1940's has been working at my heart. It's finally won me over, but let's be honest- it didn't take very long. The music just has this amazingly romantic feel about it. I never stood a chance. Now it's got me thinking about investing in a record player...

It's funny how nostalgia can grab ahold of us. It's funny how this nostalgia can grab a hold of me, considering I was not around in the 1940's.

The haven that Evelyn has found elicits these same nostalgic feelings; thoughts of another era. It makes me think of several words: vintage, charm, rustic...

Past days,

Better days-

The grass was greener

Far before us.

That era,

Never dearer-

To have lived your time

That'd've been nice.

Swing and sway,

Dance and play-

Life was simpler

In your era.

Dream,

Oh! Dream-

I live in my mind

Conjuring the enchantment of a time gone by.
