Not many people have read John Lennons poetry, here is one

I Sat Belonely
 
I sat belonely down a tree,
humbled fat and small.
A little lady sing to me
I couldn’t see at all.

I’m looking up and at the sky,
to find such wonderous voice.
Puzzly, puzzle, wonder why,
I hear but I have no choice.

‘Speak up, come forth, you ravel me’,
I potty menthol shout.
‘I know you hiddy by this tree’.
But still she won’t come out.

Such sofly singing lulled me sleep,
an hour or two or so
I wakeny slow and took a peep
and still no lady show.

Then suddy on a little twig
I thought I see a sight,
A tiny little tiny pig,
that sing with all it’s might

‘I thought you were a lady’,
I giggle, - well I may,
To my surprise the lady,
got up - and flew away.

He was a

genius before he should have been. To bad he wasn't coming to the front today. We lost a giant. K. Mulroney

So Strange ...

you mention me at the end. And thanks, by the way. I was within normal earshot of his killing when it happened. I didn't actually hear it only because NYC has so many other noises that compete for attention. I just happened to be there on business (from Seattle at the time)---and was asleep one to two miles away the moment it happened. Chuck

Oh, I Do!

And by strange, I meant strangely apropos. BTW, I was also in DC when John Hinckley attempted to assassinate President Ronald Reagan. Chuck
