Interesting to see how many of your poems relate to the Beatles' lyrics. Did you know I come from Liverpool - home of the Beatles?

My favourite lyrics belong to John Lennon with 'Imagine' and 'Woman'. The Beatles were a little before my time. However, they are a major tourist attraction here still with the restored Cavern etc. so I am fast becoming more familiar. Also people I know knew them at the time they were famous.

A poem with attitude eh *smiles*
