Question:
What poem do you know off by heart ?
I know Stevie Smith's 'Not Waving, But Drowning' ---
Nobody heard him, the dead man,
But still he lay moaning:
I was much further out than you thought
And not waving but drowning.
Poor chap, he always loved larking
And now he's dead
It must have been too cold for him his heart gave way,
They said.
Oh, no no no, it was too cold always
(Still the dead one lay moaning)
I was much too far out all my life
And not waving but drowning.

Say the word and you'll be free
Say the word and you'll be like me
Say the word I'm thinking of
Have you heard, the WORD is LOVE
It's so fine, it's sunshine
The word is love!
By: John Lennon and Paul McCartney
