Barack Obama

Observe the wave of new-found cheer: Note the parade of happy days, Explore what saves the moments here. Bestow free trade to forge the way, Align your heart with ties that bind, Reach out to touch a hurting world; Abide and grow true peace that signs, Charm gathers much in ample swirls; Keeper of peace in times of strain, Offer to be the light that grows; Bright days increase despite the pains, Appraise and see wise kindness flow; Meet peoples' need in extreme times, Aim poise discrete to face such chimes.

Dear Judy: Thank you so much for that feedback on my spelling mistake. I am grateful for your highlighting this error on my part. I have made the appropriate changes to the lines 3 to 6 to make the amendments true to the original intent. Hope you like it. Thanks once again for taking the time to help me correct the mistake I made. All the best, Leon.

You're my feeling of happiness that comes from within.. The first time I heard you ...I knew you were friend ... You're the very best President America has had... And far more important, you're such a great dad! .

Dear Judy: I feel the same way although I live in a small island state in SE Asia. Hence, this small tribute to the first African American US president. Thank you for the comments. Leon
