A Lady of Grace



On this date Jacqueline Kennedy was interred

Beside her assassinated husband ... to share

The eternal light above the man's grave ...

A fitting tribute to the lady who was saved



... So much embarrassment over the years ...

For the public outcry was so great, amidst fears

Her first husband was not such a shining example

But ... during her life ... very few would trample ...



And when she was put to rest on this day in ninety four

She was remembered as a wonderful mother before

Any references to the trauma she'd been put through

Something nobody on this earth should ever be subjected to ...
