All The Lonely People (Contest For Glenn Shannon)

Glenn is a really nice guy...he is quick with a smile, or a hug, he has picked me up..propped me up...shut me up on occasion...and well..he is having a tough time
and I want to cheer him up.

Points may go up..if any of Glenn's friends want to donate and make this a special contest for a special poet

Thanks so much to piscies rainbow for your kind donation

Glenn's track on my page is Eleanor Rigby (all the lonely people)..by The Beatles
Eleanor rigby

This is your prompt...let it take you where it will, no particular style or form, just something for Glenn

Okay..so I feel generous..and I want lots of entries..so if Glenn's song doesn't tickle your muse..try one of these instead...and show choice in author notes..

A little help from my friends
Love Is All You Need
All My Loving
Yesterday
If I Fell In Love With You

So..let's let the big guy know his friends give a damn

Rules
No bashing
Read one other entry (its a nice gesture)
Keep it clean..I don't want Glenn's younger friends to be excluded
Have Fun..and Thank you

Here is the link to glenn's page..so if any of you want to stop by and sign his guest book..I know Glenn would appreciate it

    I'd forgotten how good the Eleanor Rigby track was. The lyrics are some of the finest poetry ever written.

    The web server won't let me edit my entry; any of these songs may apply toward the contest. (I've already put in a ticket on the problem and the mods are aware of it.)
