My husband and I recently viewed Peter Jackson’s Beatles documentary “Get Back” and in watching the historic group writing songs, I noticed how they used some common practices that we can all use to bring new writing into the world. For this morning’s walk, getting back to creativity with the Beatles.

And a small drop of ink,
Falling, like dew,
Upon a thought
Produces that which makes thousands,
Perhaps millions, think’
