The Day John Lennon Died



















This is an acrostic...

M
any cried the day he died,
All the world did mourn.
Rest in peace Brother John,
Keep blowing your precious horn.
David did not know the wrong,
A Double Fantasy did.
Vindication, death through song,
In 4 clean shots he's dead.
December 8th, at 10 past 10,
Where he and Yoko dwell ed.
Heaven called John Lennon home,
At 53 minutes to 12.
That 1980 New York night,
Defined a legacy.
Into martyrdom he did rise,
Deprived tranquility.
Yoko gave his eulogy,
Only she could say,
Understand peace and love,
Do for all humans pray,
On this solemn day.
