Back in the fifties, when I was at
an impressionable age,
science fiction comic books were all the rage
Rockets rushing to the stars,
spaceships, landing on Mars
Wrist communicators, minature TVs,
super pills, to get rid of disease
Orbiting space stations, and satelites,
airliners, making supersonic flights
Submersibles, plunging to fantastic depths,
free swimming divers, exploring ancient wrecks
Man on the moon, driving electric cars,
robots, serving drinks to people in bars
Jet propelled back packs, allowing man to fly free at last,
computers, doing every conceivable task
It was fiction then, but now it's mostly true,
so It just goes to show, what mans imagination can do
