John and Yoko



Two great artists.
Lennon’s best line
‘God is a concept by which we measure our pain.’
But to put a positive spin on it,
God is only a belief and a symbol of perfection.
Yoko’s best work was her telescope and the word YES in the stars.
They had mutual respect for each other.
John Lennon didn’t seem afraid to me.
