The youth danced wildly to the sounds of music emanating from dusty record players. Peace and freedom became the mantra of a generation thirsting for change.

The 60s, a decade of glory and fame,
Where freedom and peace danced in their game.

An era of music and love, where they belong.

The hippies blossomed, with flowers in their hair,
Dreaming of peace, always and everywhere.
The Vietnam War took many lives away,
But resistance grew stronger, day by day.
