A New Direction

Today is just the beginning, of what is about to come, a man of new ideas, beating a different drum. He comes to give us hope, where none had wings to fly, and beneath the ashes of survival, he has the courage to try. The changing of old habits, where hope shall set us free, he sees the world is waiting, for fresh new air to breath. He speaks with words to all, as his title is about to change, speaking of new direction, but remembering from where he came. Together as a nation, let us stand side by side as one, supporting a new beginning, knowing together, it can be done.
