Paul
A year ago today I saw
An amazing performance
By the greatest living songwriter
A legend who will one day
Be held up with Shakespeare and Mozart
And if I appear to be stretching hyperbole
It’s only because we are
Still too near to him
For to me, there was
Never a time before
McCartney
He has always been
And though my mum
Preferred John he has
Continued on with so
Many classics that three hours
Cannot contain them
But I contain them all
And the joy they have brought
Throughout the world will
Live on when one day
He has gone
Thoughts
I’ve seen him twice. He is a musical genius. I put him in the same category as Mozart and Beethoven. Thanks.
