    John Lennon was killed thirty years ago today.

    (I know, I’m not telling you anything you don’t already know.)

    Here is the poem I found digging through his words tonight.

     words with john

    there are places I remember
    all my life though some have changed
    hold on world, world hold on
    It’s gonna be alright
    you gonna see the light

    you may say I’m a dreamer
    but I’m not the only one
    all i want is the truth
    It’s gonna be alright
    you gonna see the light

    I feel sorrow, oh I feel dreams
    everything is clear in my heart
    everything is clear in our world
    It’s gonna be alright
    you gonna see the light

    love is the answer and you know that for sure
    love is a flower you got to let it grow
    all we are saying is give peace a chance
    It’s gonna be alright
    you gonna see the light

    you say you want a revolution
    well you know
    we all want to change the world
    don’t you know know it’s gonna be alright
    you gonna see the light

    why in the world are we here
    surely not to live in pain and fear
    grow old with me the best is yet to come
    It’s gonna be alright
    you gonna see the light

    Peace,
    Milton
