Retro Vibes: A 90s Kid's Anthem

90s saturday morning.png

Back when life was neon bright,

Saturday mornings felt just right.
Cereal bowls and cartoons played,
Channel surfing, unafraid.

After hours of outdoor fun.
No cell phones, no endless scrolls,
Just bikes, tag, and tetherball goals.

Rewound with pencils when tape would tear.
Tamagotchis, beeping loud,
We kept them fed, we kept them proud.

Trapper Keepers full of secrets.
Furbies whispering late at night,
Blockbuster trips? Pure delight.

Backstreet Boys or Outkast.
"Be kind, rewind," the golden rule,
No better era, no better school.

Life was color, life was play.
90s kid, forever true,
Retro vibes—electric blue.
