CAMELOT!

Camelot! Camelot!
Where did you go?
Those hopes and dreams
You used to show
Are fading away
To be part of our past
With just one link left
To the mold that was cast.

Camelot! Camelot!
The light which once shone
Now just a flicker
Of brilliance you've known
But, the "eternal flame"
Seems brighter today
Fueled by the souls
Of those passed away.

Camelot! Camelot!
Will ne'er be the same
A place in our hearts
More than just a name
A lone Lady left
With the torch to bear
Of heartache and grief
Which we all share.

Camelot! Camelot!
You made a place
Which history will
Be able to trace
By all the sadness
And the great love, too
Along with the strength
And faith that you knew.

"Let it never be forgot
that once there was a spot...
For one brief shining moment
that was known as Camelot!!"

Would like to see more like this from you.

Ahhh .... being a true native of Massachusetts, we will never forget the mystique of Camelot. There are many Kennedy's left but only one dear one of JFK. God bless her and her children.

The day JFK, Jr. died, a huge chunk of the hearts of MA died along with him. A tragic cloud has hung over that family for generations. So sad!

Come visit the JFK Library sometime. It is spectacular.

Thanks for a wonderful piece...Marti
