Black and white 1
Between the lines2
Tales of blight 3
To play on minds4
Once interest found5
And potential made6
Now dreams abound7
Begin to fade8
Yesterday's treasures9
Today's trash10
Previous pleasures 11
Seem somewhat rash12
However, alone age could not ravage13
What only words could hope to salvage

This is kind of odd, but I thought of it at work one night.... I have odd ways of getting my inspiration.... =-)
By the way.... does anyone know how to change the line spacing?!!?

I am not sure if I do but there is this thing when you enter your poem that say fix line spacing just click it and that should do it. Thanks for sharing this and thanks for entering it into my contest

(Addition to the comment below). That method will only work in 'WORD'. To get line spacing in 'WORDPAD', Highlight the passage. Then, while holding down Ctrl, press 1 for single line spacing, or 2 for double line spacing

Interesting, if a bit staccato. By the way, to change line spacing. In most systems, (i) Highlight the passage. (ii) Put the pointer on the passage. (iii) Double right click. (iv) Click 'Paragraph' in the grid that opens. (v) Click on the arrowhead beneath 'Line Spacing'. (vi) Then click single, double (or whatever). (vii) Click 'OK'.
