Poor Richard,all you ever wanted was a hairdressing salon. Do you still remember those days long gone? Do you remember looking out your window on the plane? seeing the lonely soldiers trudging through the rain? What a send off you boys had, seeing the photos makes me sad, for you never came back, all babies in black. They thought you'd stepped out of your "place" and what John said (gasp) such a disgrace. Even though he spoke the holy truth, americans just looked for an excuse. To the young they really were almost gods with trilling notes and mop top nods. The color of Georgie's car? Who can say? It changes color every day. They should have remembered what he said *"It's all in your head"*. Paul they said,was the sweetest indeed, for who can deny "love is all ya need"? i would have given a thousand tomorrows to have a few years past to borrow, oh,i wish i'd been born long ago and seen their first apperance on the ed sullivan show.  ~~~~~~~~ not sure what this is,it's kinda silly,but what can i say? Always will love them  P.S. Which one was your favorite? Mine's George =] lol "All art is an expression of pain."~John Lennon |

Hey Swamp¤Faeryie, This is definately not silly, but very clever and very good, I loved it my favourite was John "If my words could blanket the skies and fill every corner and crevice of this earth, still this wouldn't be enough" "Maree Russo" |

very cleverly done..though I'm partial to the Eagles myself.. the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep, and many miles to go before I sleep...Frost |

Nice blast back to the past...the anniversary of the day John died wasn't too long ago. Silly, but an interesting view on that era. Great Read! --Jamie  "Who does not love the Titanic? ...We all go: only a few, first-class." --David R. Slavitt, 1983 |

I saw them, too. My favorite is Paul. To love another person is to see the face of God. - Les Miserables Marilyn |

I'm not quite sure what to make of this, but i liked it a LOT!  I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust. I hate your socks. I'd like to burn them! |

First off..I will NEVER get over your nick for the forums..*L* Secondly...I remember the night John was shot..I woke up early in the morning...and heard my uncle (( he was livin with us at the time )) crying...it was first time I ever saw a man cry.....it wasn't until one of my favorite musicians..Rich Mullins... died..that I finally understood. Mom taught us how to sing using the Beatles...and in so many ways..neither of them are dead...even though I miss them. Great poem m'dear thanks. Sol |

well thanks again dopey and sol =]John had some big things to say,to bad it had to end the way it did,i would have liked to have heard the rest. I think he would have lived a very long life and i don't think he would ever have stopped writing and making music. "All art is an expression of pain."~John Lennon |

I was only just born a few months earlier when John died, and hearing about it in retrospect made me extremely sad. I was raised in a house where Beatles records were constantly being played, and thus grew up listening to the lads. Folks thought I was weird when I was in school, but I think we'll get the last laugh--I mean, who's gonna last longer: the Beatles, or the latest teen craze? p.s. My favorite is George--the man was and is a guitar genius. "If you can't annoy somebody, there's little point in writing." --Kingsley Amis |

amen gofor!! I'm 16 and i'm not supposed to be a beatles fan either,but i think the new stuff is idiotic and the kids my age are stark raving mad.Okay well i respect their musical opinions,but it's just not my cup of tea. The Beatles were pure genius at times.Thanks for your comments =] sammi "All art is an expression of pain."~John Lennon |

LOL I heard more Beatles than I could handle with two older sisters ! No wonder I was (and still am) a Stones fan. But yeah..yeah..yeah...they were pretty good. I still like the music from Paul. Oh and you can be a Beatle fan these days... I have a fourteen year old daughter who is completely addicted to Queen ! |
