I have many ghosts
they follow me everywhere I go
even when I'm alone in a coffee bar
i'm surrounded by people I've loved
so if you see me
and think i’m talking to myself
well...
think again.

Those memories are so very important Teddy and they will always be with you.
When I see you in that coffee bar I will join you, mine is a black Americano without sugar please.

That's not coffee Andy 💖🤣 but I'll offer you an Italian coffee with a chaser of grappa?
Thank you Teddy, most kind.

Same Teddy....same!! Makes us seem crazy.....but I'll still have my coffee and talk to them....people can look all they want!!! 🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭💖💖💖💖
Thank you my dear Lizzy, they really are with us in some way aren't they. 💜
maybe not .. but I can sure feel them .. darn near shed a tear when I saw the video and the soundtrack .. a most relatable poem too T .. N ❤️
My dear Nev, thank you. So much dreadful stuff going on in the UK and the world yet the Beatles are number one strange weird and wonderful to have the ghost of George and John helping us to find love and peace and warmth, and for Ringo and Paul, well what I can only imagine is that they could have never imagined. ❤️
The best thing about those ghosts is they listen intently, don't judge and never interrupt that stream of memories, they just love you. Beautiful my dear Teddy! I was in 8th grade when the Beatles hit the U.S. and I was addicted throughout high school. I had a 6' pic of Paul McCartney on my bedroom door, Beatle Boots, cap, the whole bit. Saw them Busch Stadium 1966 (terrible sound system). Never to be forgotten part of my adolescence! Felt I just had to confess.
Such a gorgeous review and I'm honoured it brought back memories dearest Bella. My mother was a huge fan of the Beatles too. 🩷 Thank you dear friend.
Although I'm not a coffee drinker, I'll join you with my own ghosts for the evening. 😉
We can have tea then. 🤗 Thank you for coming by dear A.P.
The pleasure was mine. ☺️
Haunting. Yes I too at times find myself talking to such ghosts of people that I once knew and are no longer here. Lovely
Awe thank you dear sorenbarret. I suspect we all have a few of these ghosts. 🌹
