Buckle Up Buttercup

Buckle up Buttercup for there is so much going on
The year 2020 has been more than ridiculous, and I do not fawn.
We have never had a Presidential Election go on past the first night.
This one may go beyond this week. The stress is out of sight.

2020 has been the looniest, strangest year we ever have seen.
Black Lives Matter has brought us truths we do not find very keen.
Hurricane not as worrisome as division of USA which used to never be.
I am frightened by the potential violence, I can almost plainly see.

Halloween was cancelled for the pandemic has ruined most of our fun.
If anything else gets thrown this way, I am going to run!
Such a crazy time, blue moon or no blue moon, and that’s a fact.
We have to be unified, and peaceful, so we can get our country back.

But who will unify? The media is out of control but God is in control. We see first hand why he handled Babel. When the whole world has a voice it seems not to be for true peace.

We need to stop this President stuff and have a committee.
