Poem Artwork

Have you ever looked back
On the pages of life
Has it all been a struggle
Problems and strife
Do you ever feel let down
Everyone has turned away
You wake up to greet
Just another day
The script of your life
Is reaching the end
And you can't even find
The hand of a friend
It will be too late
To make everything right
You've got to be ready
When you see "the light"

And their will be an answer
"Let it be,  Let it be"

**********************************

Is your Bible on the shelf
Never opened,  never read
Does night fall upon you
Without one prayer said
Do you go through life
No compassion in your heart
And everything you try to do
Always falls apart
Have you tried to help another
Held their hand through the day
Or did you slowly pass on by
And quickly turn away
The years we have are swift
Days turn into night
How many will be ready
For their journey to "the light"

Shine on intill tomorrow
"Let it be,  Let it be"

2008 Linda Hill / Robert Sheridan

Hi Linda I love this piece and however your friend the poet has helped you. When ones learns to accept the knowledge of God which is truth: he or she eyes are opened and they can see the light and become a part of its righteousness! That is when the transformed life becomes possible and as you know there is nothing like it in the universe! Once again accolades to You and Robert.

Very well done collab and the use of the lyric quotes of John Lennon who set the rules for those who follow in his footsteps hoping for peace, is very effective.

Great poem. I loved how you interjected the Beatles' verses..."Let it be"

Reviewed on December 3, 2008
Hello Linda,

Beatles, I believe? It is quite similar to "In My Life" song by the group - but realistically, it is what happens later in life, unless we chose to go the "Yellow Submarine" route of escape (LOL) - I like the lighthearted style, full of wisdom and a little nudge at the senses. I may be one of the few who's lucky to find True Love NOW,
and found true LIGHT too, found Freedom from past hurts, and look excited to the future at 60! Great poem here, and glad to let it be!

Cynthia

Karma Bank to Following By Listening by Chiemi

These song lyrics and art are tales, tides and twinkling lights - tunes telling stories of warmth and sun, city and sand, paths that lead, and the coins we can keep in the Karma Bank. Spirit's been bypassed for sorrow, dreaming of a better tomorrow .
