If I were President, this would be my Inaugural Address: My fellow Americans I stand here before you today the first poetic president, but not the last, I pray. Our platform is simple, a creed for all time every law will now be written in poetic rhyme. We will no longer tolerate greed - we will share we will no longer tolerate indifference - we will care we will no longer tolerate cruelty, hate or bigotry anyone who does, will answer directly to me! Children shall be taught to read poetry first of all rhyming, writing and arithmetic will be a teacher’s call we will reach out our hands to help anyone in need selfish people, hear my words and take heed…. take heed. Love will be the battle cry to win this poetic war peace will be the reason that the heavens we explore Majestic eagle will still stand for freedom and liberty but in his beak will be the rose; the rose of civility No one shall ever want for food, it’s the law of the land no child shall be abused, by any human hand Once a month we’ll meet here again, to remind ourselves that we are the greatest country in the world, proud, loving and free.

I love this, Nation shall speak unto Nation With love, and peace for all Food shall be given without ration No one shall fear the rule Weapons are not needed here Cast out your guns and spears Night shall hold no fear The light will soon appear Beautiful poem, really love this Take care Marsha  Take back the hope you gave,- I claim Only a memory of the same Robert Browning |
