Gershon Wolf Poet Rhyme

The Beatles and I on Marriage and Love

       If it’s really as the Beatles say
          ‘All you need is love’

       Then I’ll skip examining my marriage
          contract with that ageless old white glove

Linda Alice Fowler October 18, 2025 at 1:27 PM And as George Harrison (the thoughtful one) said on several occasions, “Everything else can wait but the search for God cannot wait, and love one another.” Cute and current gw! :) Gershon Wolf October 19, 2025 at 7:36 PM Yes I am --- cute, that is. As for the other thing, not so much. ~ Kerr E.N.T.

Rowena Velasco October 15, 2025 at 10:55 PM All you need is love… and courage to face it honestly. Beautiful lines!

Joseph P. DiMino October 15, 2025 at 1:58 PM Yep, never did think the Beatles knew much about anything. Music was catchy though. Gershon Wolf October 16, 2025 at 8:06 PM Well, they sure knew how to rake in the money... Dahl R. Sines

CayCay Godwin October 15, 2025 at 6:10 AM This isn't the first time, I've left you with this, 'applause.' I so get IT. Gershon Wolf October 16, 2025 at 8:03 PM Thanks for the hand there, CayCay. Appreciated, Gershon

Yann Rolland October 14, 2025 at 2:29 AM song of Beatles are not reality, well done poet Gershon Wolf October 16, 2025 at 8:02 PM The Beatles existed in that fairy-tale bubble of vast wealth, willing women and wine, didn't they?

sara Etgen-Baker October 13, 2025 at 6:06 PM thanks for the humorous advice

Mickey Grubb October 13, 2025 at 4:32 PM Gershon, brilliant twist--love over legalese, as it should be. Though I hear Paul whispering, “We can work it out,” while John is buying a “Ticket to Ride.” Either way, I’m with you: skip the glove, keep the groove, my friend. Gershon Wolf October 16, 2025 at 8:00 PM Gloves off the groove is the word, Mickey. Excelsior! ~ Gershon

Ilene Bauer October 13, 2025 at 9:12 AM Ha! Good one, Gershon! Gershon Wolf October 16, 2025 at 7:50 PM Thank you for, Ilene. ~ Gershon

David Crandall October 13, 2025 at 8:01 AM I think the Beatles glossed over a few things. Gershon Wolf October 16, 2025 at 7:44 PM Think so? Me too. Just a few, however. lol. ~ gw

Kim Rodrigues October 13, 2025 at 6:19 AM Don’t follow the Beatles for love advice. Follow the Song of Songs. Remember to compliment your wife as having hair like a flock of goats and a neck like the tower of David. ;) Hugs! Yay, hostages released. Praise the Lord! Gershon Wolf October 16, 2025 at 7:43 PM You mean that 'All You Need is Love is not the 'Song of Songs?' Guess I've been mistaken all these years. ~ Solomon ibn David
