Remember Those 80's Shows?

Poetry Challenge - Write a Poem About the 80's

Remember the 80's

When Alf was always trying to eat the cat,

And Wendy's was telling us where the beefs at?

Cheers really was the best,

But who could forget all the rest?

The Huxtables and the Keaton's

And the Seavers too,

Kept our families to the boob tube glued.

We laughed and we cried as we learned

Who's the Boss?,

And then we lost John B.,

Oh what a loss.

But the one that I miss the most,

The one I've never forgot,

The Greatest American Hero -

Believe it or Not!
