Summer of Love

Summer of Love

In '67, streets alive,
Peace and love began to thrive.
Hippies gathered, young and free,
Dreaming of a world to be.

Music played, a vibrant sound,
Psychedelic vibes abound.
Monterey's electric beat,
Bands and fans in joyful heat.

Tie-dye clothes and flowers bright,
Fashioned colors, pure delight.
Posters swirling, art that flowed,
Cultural seeds were widely sowed.

Voices raised, protests loud,
Marching in a hopeful crowd.
Against the war, for rights they fought,
Change was more than just a thought.

Haight-Ashbury, hearts unite,
Communal life from day to night.
Experiments with mind and soul,
Summer's love made whole and whole.
