Mixed Media Monday - Lyric

Especially in the inner city, or when seeing the homeless, these lyrics from the Beatles' song come to my mind. This entry is a silent prayer for all the lonely people. Photos are googled, and the grunge overlay is by Bernie Datema at Scrapbook Graphics.

  2. I couldn't have said it better than Ann ... beautiful and poignant as is the song. "Eleanor Rigby" is one of my favourites. The lyrics are thoughtful and sad and poetic. The Beatles weren't just pretty faces.

  14. These photos are starkly poigniant, and that song has always pierced my heart too, Bev. You're so right: Joel was one of the lonely people. How odd that we both illustrated songs of allienation and despair.

  15. When you think about how 'rough' our inner cities are, it's a wonder anyone homeless survives. This is a really wonderful and thought-provoking piece Bev! xo
