Everything Good Is Worth Restoring

We are going to see a lot of changes, happen in the days to come
A time of serious reflection, into the many places we come from
As we are faced with challenges, we will stay united and strong
Everything good is worth restoring and we resist what is wrong
Patience is worthy, while truth and justice have a way to prevail
The time for celebration will make its way to soon set sail
We will live life to the fullest, breathe each gifted breath of air
Clipping clamps from our wings, fly above holdings of despair
And as we fly like eagles through the open sky, thanking Lord
We will know, the American Dream is not lost, but restored!

Such an uplifting message you have through your poem Heidi! I loved the line "breathe each gifted breath of air", it is so so true!! Every single breath is so precious and I think that we need to be more conscious about it by being thankful.
