Notes About The Poem

Written 8 January 2026 for Lyrical Tribute Poetry Contest of Tom Woody

Song Tribute to John Kennedy

A flame so bright that lit the way,
A promise whispered everyday,
A nation dreamt, a future bold,
John Kennedy`s name, lips still hold.

A flame so bright  that lit the way,
Sparkled far and made the mind sway,
He spoke of hope, a future bright
And countrymen with equal rights.

          Let`s sing John Kennedy`s glory,
          Together you and me,
          Together everybody,
           Sing his shining glory.

A flame so bright that lit the way,
To crowds he chose wise words to say
He aimed for stars beyond the sky, 
Asked citizens bravely to try.

A flame so bright , that lit the way,
A sunshine glowing with his ray, 
He asked for strength, not comfort`s ease
To build a world that would appease.

          Let`s chant John Kennedy`s story
          Together you and me
           Together everybody
           Chant his glorious story,
        
A flame so bright, that lit the way,
He wished not residents to stray,
But grow up the national cake
And everyone to reap his stake,

A flame so bright that lit the way,
But a shot rang on the highway,
Like shadows, he fell with a blow
A nation wept in silent woe.
 
          Let us air John Kennedy`s fame
           Tobgether resonate his name,
           Together vibrate his flame,
           Air his wonderful fame.

A flame so bright that lit the way,
With a shot dreams were blown away,
Though time has flown and tales been told,
John Kennedy`s name shines as gold.

A flame so bright that lit the way,
With years, men`s glamour may decay,
But Kennedy`s fame bound to stay,
Still shines on the nation`s archway,

          Let`s hum John Kennydy`s eminence
          Together resound his prominence
          Together cahant his billance
          Hum his worldly eminence.
