Beatle Mania Love Slam

Dear John, My name is Paul Let it be Can't buy me love In this working class town Where the Beatles came from Meanwhile back Sgt Peper Plods the beat Down Penny Lane By Strawberry Field Yesterday All along the long and winding road I heard the news today Oh Boy! Mother Mary had passed away And though the mourners came in the pouring rain Its very strange How they come together right now All the lonely people ? Where do they all come from ? Hey Jude ? I am the Walrus !

This one takes me right back to the 70's, and how amazing we thought these 4 unexpected mop-head singers were. I like the feelings this poem gave me.

what a clever use of song lyrics to turn them into a brilliant poem. I was never a great Beatle's fan but there are several songs I love especially Blackbird and yesterday:-) hugs Jan xx
