Notes About The Poem

For 1433 Any Short Form Poetry Contest sponsored by Brian Strand

Name that Sad Song

Can you name these four songs?

I don't know life at all, my friend -
the answer still blows in the wind. 
But I know the walrus is named Paul,
and autumn leaves must fall.

My favorite of those songs was the folk song, "The Answer My Friend Is Blowing in the Wind." Those words were the swan song of my generation. Liked your creativity, :-) Sara
