War Is Over Senryu's Twenty One I cried Decembers cold night I sang A voice of his light Today is Christmas Snow flakes remind of that night Crystallized peace signs And War Is Over And the words live on, although John Lennon is dead James Parker Haley Dec 25, 2000.

Very well written Parker! I wish it was true and I wish that genius was still alive. He was worth so much to the world while he was existing...take care!! |

"all we are saying ... is give Peace a chance" Imagine Imagine there's no heaven, It's easy if you try, No hell below us, Above us only sky, Imagine all the people living for today... Imagine there's no countries, It isnt hard to do, Nothing to kill or die for, No religion too, Imagine all the people living life in peace... Imagine no possesions, I wonder if you can, No need for greed or hunger, A brotherhood of man, imane all the people Sharing all the world... You may say Im a dreamer, but Im not the only one, I hope some day you'll join us, And the world will live as one... Written by: John Lennon Merry Christmas P-man Some people find subtlety in strangers if you find anything~let me in Your eyes~you see everything my eyes~I see it all together now~and I know |

Yes, lives can be erased...but words live on forever. For that reason we write...and John Lennon sang. I wish you a merry Christmas, Parker. |
