Three 19th Century Romantic Poets Were Talking

________________________________________________________________________________________________

The three poets were
the British triumvirate of
met in the magnificent
magnanimous afterlife
 
They were talking
in the Grand Garden
   
Nearby,
 couples were dancing
to rock 'n roll music
 
"Lord Byron,"
said Shelley
(or was it Keats)
"What is it, Percy?"
(or was it John)
 
Whoever it was,
this is what they said:
 
In the 19th century,
if we had
guitar, bass and amps,
The Beatles 
would have been    
an afterthought.
