Hey John...
You make it all better
Your instant karma
Turns my thoughts upside down...

I sit and imagine
A life..
so much better than this
I close my eyes
and let it all
collide
Just sing me...
sing me yer blues...
tonight
soothe this restless soul
as I continously hit
rewind

Hey John...
I'm floating down
d
   o
     w
        n
to Strawberry Fields Forever
soaring across the universe
soaking wet by standing in the english rain
with my eyes closed
letting it all
collide
so...
I beg of you
sing
me yer blues
as I continously hit
rewind...



If at first you don't succeed destroy all the evidence that you tried.

"You got to admit, you're getting better,
A little better, all the time"

loved this one.

I said I'm going to buy a gun and start a war,
If you can tell me something worth fighting for

YES!  Another Lennon fan here, I was the only "kid" in school that thought that his music was great...way back then, my parents were huge Lennon fans, so we listened to him a lot...You are not alone...

Now, I will be humming Lennon tunes all night long!

Wonderful write!

I listen to Lennon's Legends CD at least once a week. "Imagine all the people,"
I sing this one all the time.

"I didn't mean to hurt you, I'm sorry that I made you cry...I'm just a jealous guy"
that's another one I've always liked.
Yes, guess you could say I'm a John Lennon fan.

Hi
Good write. My son loves the Beatles and he is a true fan.He has all their albums.
When he stops over I'll show him this poem, I'm sure he will enjoy.

excellently expressed , it reminded me of one I wrote way back in 1999 ..... yes his words will live on
Hope

Imagine I’m A Dreamer

Yes tonight I’m singing along
Peace he was wanting to see
“Imagine” the words of his song
Words of a dreamer just like me

Tonight he still sang so clear
A dreamer but not the only one
Words of the song so touching
So sad that he’s now gone

His words sung out to the world
Tonight he’s still singing with me
Same thoughts, wishes and dreams
To end all hunger and poverty

You are gone but never forgotten
You fell from the hands of a gun
Yes dear John I am a dreamer
So you were not the only one
Hope
