A Sigh of Relief

Our daughter is a Democrat Our son, a Republican He's labelled her a bleeding heart She calls him a Trumpity-Dumpity-Man My wife and I saw an opportunity To finally move them out of the house In our son's room we hung a poster of AOC In our daughter's closet lurks a robot mouse When they finally left, we breathed a sigh of relief Until we looked each other right in the eye ~ And started expressing our own beliefs

We have decided never to discuss any of that silly stuff; it divides families.

Thank you, Alexis. I feel that this kind of thing is happening all too often these days, unfortunately. Sweetness and Light, Gershon
