The Beatles - Lay it to me.
A Lay is a type of form that is most commonly written in octosyllabic verse, in which the name suggests, a verse where each line has eight syllables. To keep it simple ONLY make it EIGHT lines. There is also a rhyme pattern of aa,bb,cc,dd. The twist here is to use the title of a Beatles song and create your own poem from that. You may use any title that you want but the Beatles title must be incorporated somewhere into the poem.
