A Good News Day

The sun rose this morning Hip-Hip-Hooray! Things are going our way Frost and drought Did not destroy crops There’s food for the world – Lick your chops A truce finally came in the Mideast Soldiers are coming home No more to war will they roam Cures have been found for Ebola and cancer All who were ill are now well We’ll never again hear the death knell Washington D.C. is rejoicing A new president won election The economy is headed in a better direction All who want jobs are now working Teachers, nurses, street cleaners too Accolades abound for this major breakthrough Harmony prevails throughout the world All religions and cultures have united as one No one need carry a gun Environmental protection efforts are working Let’s rejoice with a sip of wine Prayers have been answered by a Creator divine *October 18, 2014
