Written for: dVerse Poets Pub - Haibun Monday - Take a Hike! (posted by Frank T.) "Write a haibun using the word, "hike". Thinking back to days when we could not wear pants to school or work.

Of course then, I had to wear long sweaters or blouses to hide a bulging waist roll.

Ha, when I went to school everyone (boy and girl) wore jeans. But that was the 70s in Sweden.

I remember Catholic school (K-8) uniforms, and my Salesian High School dress codes (Collar shirt, tie, sport jacket OR Don Bosco sweater). Thanks for the nostalgia! 😉
