KENNEDY

KENNEDY

The date was 22nd November 1963

A day that would go down in history 

For John F Kennedy would not get through the day 

A man called Oswald would have his say 

At 10.40am Kennedy left to address the nation 

The crowds were gathering in anticipation 

Just 2 hours later Kennedy was pronounced dead 

"A single bullet" a hospital spokesman said 

So why on God's green earth was Kennedy asked to die 

The questions remain and people wonder why 

It's been over 50 years since Kennedy was gone 

The history books will prove his legacy lives on
