Words That By The Wayside Fell Comments

Every now and again, I catch myself saying some outdated, tarnished relic of a phrase... and I know so, by the upturned looks, of my nieces and nephews...then a conversation erupts...trying to find a suitable description, definition, and new age translation, for my lost language! ! ! ! Thought provoking write, much enjoyed

Yes I do remember some of those old terms that was used. The youth nowadays have a complete set of terms. Most of them I have never heard of. To young for me i guess. Thanks for the memories.

Different words for different Aussie states... I am still using far out and Gig yet the others I have not heard of. I think the youth today follow eachother too much. Love your words

During certain stages of life, knowingly or unknowingly, some words and phrases creep into our vocabulary and we are likely to use them very often or may develop a special interest for them. But as we shift into another stage of life, we notice that those words, we no longer use. But a few may continue to interest us through out our life. A unique theme for a poem! Enjoyed! !
