100th Birthday of

President John Fitzgerald Kennedy

Portrait of John F. Kennedy

Jamie Wyeth

(1967)

Sunset and evening star, 

And one clear call for me!

And may there be no moaning of the bar

When I put out to sea.

But such a tide as moving seems asleep,

Too full for sound or foam,

When that which drew out from the boundless deep

Turns again home.

Twilight and evening bell,

And after that the dark!

And may there be no sadness of farewell

When I embark;

For, though from out our bourne of time and place

The flood may bear me far,

I hope to see my Pilot face to face

When I have crossed the bar.

Crossing The Bar

Alfred, Lord Tennyson
