This is our fun

This is our fun (out in the sun)

~

Fields, harboring dreams,
feeding the soul, 
singing along

Now, more than it seems,
outside the door,
what could be wrong

I promised to be there 
when nobody else was around
Lost in the shadows 
where desperate wishes were found

Eyes, look to the sky,
shaded in blue,
softer than air

Clouds, whispering low,
satin and silk,
woven to share

We danced in the clover 
when springtime had welcomed us in
But felt only winter,
the cold taking rest on our skin

Still, we'll always be,
left of the storm,
out in the sun

Smiles, endlessly free,
for you and me,
this is our fun

~

This poem is written to the melody 
of a popular Beatles song. 
Can you guess the song based on 
the melody of the poem?

This is the only Beatles' song I can't play in my head any time I want! I won't be able to help you with the answer you seek, but you did answer my question: you are still here and you've still got magic ink. I've missed your presence and WILL visit again (it's late.) ... CayCay

I just noticed all your readers have pretty much left you hanging, no help at all! Made me laugh.

So glad you divulged the song title ~ I couldn't figure it out. Really enjoyed this, Chris, especially knowing how the melody goes. Good to see you here!

Howdy, just passing through and testing the waters with this one. Glad you liked it and sang along (You know you did.) : )

The melody escaped me, but I'd dance in Strawberry Fields. Sounds better than the snow that arrived here on Tuesday! Fun write, Chris.
