When John’s mission in 1975 found its close,
He made a choice, in time’s grand throes.
To aid mankind, his thoughts took flight,
Actions followed, burning bright.
His path led him to the year 2000’s crest,
Unaware of the journey, the unfolding quest.
An adventure, a few months in his frame,
For us, decades, but the love’s the same.
A journey woven through the fabric of years,
For all of us, joy, hope, and a few tears.
A voyage through time, in beauty unfurled,
An epic, a dance, across the world.
