CHANGE
Goodbye rude rhetoric and mudslinging,
your day has come and gone,
I can hear the bells ringing and people singing
about America’s new dawn!
No more Joe “the unlicensed” Plumber quotes,
trying to get our sympathy votes.
Substance has conquered lies and innuendos,
and all of the other sneaky political lows.
Reason has reared it’s head in 2008,
in an election that changed history and why this country is great.
Now we must come together and be united as a country
so the rest of the world can see a working democracy.
Dreams only come true when we are awake,
forging a future to have promise for our children’s sake.
This winter comes with the promise of a new day,
it’s icy clutches made bearable listening to what people say.
Hope is like a hound unleashed and untamed by reality,
it becomes what we chose to see.
Obama has proved the endearing American tale is true,
anyone can be the president - even you!
