My thoughts ebb and flow endlessly,
Melding pain and joy across the ages.
“Victory to the Greatness in you”
The constant flux never changes.
The sound of your voice curls around me,
Lifting me high into the air
Like a tide that rises and falls,
My thoughts ebb and flow endlessly.
I’m lured by splinters of light
Flickering in my eyes, I’m blinded.
Time holds us in its warm embrace,
Melding pain and joy across the ages.
Hearing the love and warmth in your voice,
It draws me closer to your side.
The playful winds seem to whisper,
“Victory to the Greatness in you”.
Ringing with cosmic harmonies,
The world vibrates with our love
In shining explosive waves,
The constant flux never changes.

Following the Rules!
I like the fact that you didn't use the original lyrics, as the contest rules specified, but as others did. I did the same as you, trying to find translation of the original lyrics. I enjoyed your interpretation of this Lennon classic! Good work! -

My Goodness
I listened to the song and read the poem at the same way, they sound alike in your own interpretation. You have a lot of relations between the song and the poem, I truly am impressed. I can see I'll have a hard time choosing winners if people write poetry like yourself. Thank you for your time. -
