John Kennedy's Death

The whole world was shocked 
When John Kennedy died.
Spread out the news so quickly
Like a contagious SARS disease.
But all the beautiful things he did
For his beloved country
Had remained in the hearts by many
For he was a leader who served best.
His principles and ideas were right. 
Although it was an untimely death,
It was an extraordinary fleet
For the former president
In the United States to serve
The country with great pride.
Indeed,
He was a hero for the Americans
'Cause of his accomplishments
And contributions in the country. 

Long live America!
