Oh my gosh,
Don!!! I can't believe you found that picture! What a part of childhood that book was. You brought in the bologna/baloney sandwiches. Roy Rogers lunch box is classic. Mine was Lassie. Funny the things you remember, and from simpler days.
Hugs,
Rhonda

Comment from Jesse James Doty
Oh, sweet memories of long ago. A Roy Rogers lunch box is a treat for any boy when growing up in the early 60s. I had one of my own as a boy, used it, and abused it banging it around the bus on the way to school. But boy howdy did I love it! I love the artwork as well it fits in well with the theme of this poem.
Take me back to the good old days!

Comment from Janet Foor
If you go with Oscar Myers - it's "boloney". (Smile)
I enjoyed your fun nostalgic 5/7/5 poem. It's funny how even a thought of a smell can trigger a memory.
Nicely done
Blessings

Comment from Sandra Stoner-Mitchell
I was sure your word was correct and the children's version was wrong, but I checked it out and both are correct! It's funny, because I've always used, (a load of) baloney as being rubbish, untrue, so now I've learned something else! I had cheese and pickle! That was a fabulous 5-7-5 entry, and certainly opened my mind up, :)) it was really well done. Good luck in th contest. :)) Warmst hugs, Sandra xx

You are so very generous and Kind Sandra. I had to look the two words up and found that either could be used. Baloney, is probably Americanized slang.
Comment from lyenochka
Well, that does spark nostalgia ! I hope they are not running to the bathroom. I remember that first reader. Best wishes in the contest!
Suggestion :
in my Roy Rodgers lunch box (Rogers)

I don't I've ever partaken of a baloney sandwich in my life before Kahpot, perhaps it's the baloney that is really off putting my friend. But I've eaten lots of regional assuage before, beautifully written D&V blessings Roy

I love baloney or bologna, same thing, different words. Isn't life fun that way.
Such short forms can capture entire littanys of memory and this is a good one.
Thank you for sharing

This is great! A trip down memory lane, do you remember the smell vividly because you really liked it or despised it or just a stand alone vivid memory! Great entry for the 5-7-5 contest. Well done and good luck.
Best Wishes
