The Cavern: Here Comes The Sun Poem by Francie Lynch

We've come together
To reach our Mecca
At 10 Mathew St.
Blessed by the Beat Les Musique
Beneath this winding road.
(Sont les mots qui vont tres bien ensemble) .

Mersey Beat shook the world,
In the beginning,
In the end,
And across the universe.

I get a feeling beneath
This burning neon sign,
Proclaiming,
The Cavern.
I imagine
I hear:
'I am he
And you are he...'
I'm peaking here
Above holy ground.

Don't ask me why
We said the things
We said today.
We've carried our weight,
Said hello and goodbye,
Good morning, good morning,
Good night.
And when I'm down,
And I'm so sad,
And when you
Needed someone,
We would work it out.
Why worry over yesterday,
Let yesterday
Be.

Hold my hand
As we descend
Thirty-three steps,
And stand again
As if seventeen
Before the altar of song.
In this crypt
I'm a child
Buying tickets
For a ride.

Now hold me tight
As the two of us
Twist and twirl and shout.
Yes, I'm happy
Just to dance with you.

From this cellar,
Rose the sons of man
To sing and teach
Of love and peace,
And the brotherhood
Of man.

Let's ascend now,
Oh darling,
It's getting better
All the time.
Here comes the sun.
I'll follow.
