"Get Back"

If you have movies taken back

When you were just a child,

You’ll know that seeing everyone

So young is really wild.

 

The clothes, the styles, the mannerisms

Take you to that time

When some on screen most likely had

Been living in their prime.

 

“Get Back” by Peter Jackson

Gives us all a chance to see

The Beatles at their finest

And most viewers would agree

 

That it captures, like in amber,

Glimpses perfectly preserved

Of four artists hard at work,

A process very few observed.

 

For the fans, it’s like rare treasure

We’ve been told that we can share,

When we didn’t even realize

All the riches waiting there.

 

As I watch, I’m not a nana

Or a teacher or a wife

But a teenaged girl just starting

On the path that’s been my life.
