It’s been very rough,
But it’s getting easier now,
Hard times are over, over for a while,
The streams are twinkling in the sun,
And I’m smiling inside,
You and I walking together ’round the street corner,
Hard times are over,
Hard times are over,
Hard times are over, over for a while.
And I meant no disrespect to John Lennon by using his last song on Double Fantasy to illustrate a somewhat prophetic ending to his corporeal being. Like the talented NY writer whose very blog where this great photograph resides, Lennon was a compassionate, intelligent and witty wordsmith that made the impossible seem oh so easy. Cheers and may you still be making heady music in that Great Big Tub in the 12th Dimension.
