Legends In My Lifetime (1953-1997) Print E-mail
(0 votes)

Her Royal Highness our Princess of Wales,
Here begins my Legend of Fairy Tales,
Her kindness, charities and immaculate beauty,
She fulfilled in her many royal duties.

Next in our minds is Marilyn Monroe,
A beautiful image of innocence told,
As she walked along the streets she'd see,
People staring 'why are they looking at me'

Then there was Elvis he was our King of Rock,
He tried so hard but could not stop,
His fans now still over rule the world,
At Graceland his life you will unfurl.

Then was the Legend of my Teens,
John Lennon and Yoko were perfect beings,
They lived their life exactly as they wanted,
When they ate, drank or slept would not be counted.

But, in tragedy, they all fell down,
What exactly happened to them will never, ever be found,
Please let our Legends now come to an end,
Please let us all in this world, be good friends

 - Carol Matthews
