Poem – I Hardly Knew You (By Gary Beck)
I hardly Knew You
We remember a lost President,
assassinated,
promises unfulfilled,
who dazzled the nation
with youthful vigor
almost unAmerican glamour,
and many reminisce
of what could have been,
forgetting the best and brightest
sent abroad in the Peace Corps,
instead of working at home
to cure national ills,
forgetting how close he came
to incinerating the world,
but he had charisma
and that always fools a lot of us.
