As a man and as a President too,
You lived and loved now your life is through,
Moved on ~ Not finished ~ You’re among peers,
Your life’s not diminished ~ But you’ve a job here,
You’re one of the few ~ Among The Elite,
There waiting for you ~ Go take your seat,
Halls lined with portraits ~ Will now come to life,
Presidents and patriots ~ All live in the night,
These men are assembled ~ To guide living hands,
When the world trembled ~ The Elite took command,
So now, The Elite will live with you,
You’ll meet George, Abe & John Quincy too,
J.F.K. and Richard N.
Remember them ~ Your old friends,
Decades will pass ~ Time will fade ~
But time means nothing in the shade,
You’re needed now in this time and place,
To join brilliant minds that time can’t erase,
Like your predecessors when they came,
Doing a job that they once framed,
There job isn’t over and neither is yours,
The Presidency is an unending tour,
As part of The Elite their intent is sincere,
Protecting their country is why you are here,
So you live in the shadows unknown to mankind,
Serving your Nation from one step behind,
Keeping her safe by day and by night,
Securing her from evil’s own plight,
So please remember as you work in the dark,
Don’t just guide the hands but touch the hearts.
