Beatles Haiku
Blue sky, sea of green;
Life beneath the waves in our
Yellow Submarine.

Can't get through to you
And I will just lose my mind
If you won't see me

I once had a girl
I should say she once had me
Good, Norwegian wood.

Let me take you down
(Nothing to get hung about)
to Strawberry Fields


(This one's by my husband:)

All you need is love
It is where you're meant to be
Love is all you need.
