IMAGINE
Sunday Morning TV show, at 9 o'clock, had a segment with Julian and Sean Lennon. They were celebrating their father turning seventy!!!! I took to the bed!!! Fell OUT!!!
We are just here a minute it seems. I think I was just watching the Fab Four on the Ed Sullivan Show, and John Lennon would have been seventy! I know this must be the Twilight Zone!!! In my minds eye, he is young and writing songs. Of course I was going to marry Paul, but I knew John had the gift.
I was a newly married lady, and I knew that I had picked the right man, when John Lennon died, and Bill took me to New York. The front of the building, where he was shot, had yellow tape all surrounding it, a hole in the front door, where my memories stopped. Bill circled several times, so I could, maybe blink, and wish it looked different. It remained a crime scene, and there were no more songs. John left us too soon, but look what he left us.
Julian Lennon had a photography exhibit, where the whole Lennon family had gathered. Yoko and Cynthia, hugging like old friends. Now I know I was in the Twilight Zone, so much bad blood, and history, and sadness, now healed because the Lennon brothers love each other.
All he was ever saying was, "Give Peace a Chance"
Happy birthday, old man with the gift.
