To Paul… whose words depict our times <br />within melodic runic rhymes <br />and woven lyrical designs <br /> <br />To Paul… your Tug of War in life <br />inspired you to pen Peace Pipes <br />for a world besieged with strife <br /> <br />To Paul… the idol of our youth <br />who sang of love in words of truth <br />and suffered much undue abuse <br /> <br />To Paul… whose music paved the way <br />for Sargent Pepper’s Band to play <br />and gave us dreams of Yesterday <br /> <br />To Paul… whose Wings taught us to fly <br />by granting hope and leave to try <br />with joy that begged to touch the sky <br /> <br />To Paul… whose sadness now we see <br />in loss of love through destiny <br />our prayer for him to Let It Be <br /> <br />© 1998 JVD<br /><br />Jane Van Doe<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/to-paul-beatles-sir-paul-mccartney-beatles-james-paul-mccartney-beatles-wings-mccartney-beatles-mccartney/
