Farewell Obamas

Farewell Obamas Barack Obama born to be the leader of the United States of America Asked us to acknowledge and accept each other’s cultural and personal differences around the world Remembering to stay dignified and taught us that in the face of adversity and criticism to stay focused on our intended goal for the good of all Always showing us that human kindness should be lived daily Convincing all of us that good can come from every situation and reminding the world that Kind words and kind acts are sweet to the soul and health to our bones We salute you Obamas, it is because of you many of us have been forever changed by truly making us Believe we can be and do anything that we set our hearts and minds to achieve And to Sasha and Malia, you grew up right before our eyes and blossomed into gorgeous young women. You embraced your place in history so graciously, that was placed on you by your father’s decision to become the President of the United States. Thank you Michelle, you gave many women the right to bare arms. You inspired so many of us to become better versions of ourselves. You too have taught us that despite criticism we should remain focused on our intended goals. Thank you for sharing your family with us and for supporting our President Barack Obama. Our beautiful FLOTUS, thank you for inspiring both men and women around the world to live out their dreams. Thank you And to you Mr. President Barack Obama, thank you for leading this great country while serving two terms in office. You have taught me to dream BIG. You have shown me to encourage those around me. You have remained poised and composed through the criticism and continued to show up for duty every day. I will personally miss seeing you descend from Air Force One with such swag and style with each step. So, Mr. POTUS, thank you for your service and due diligence in keeping me and my family safe to the best of your abilities. Finally, thank you for sharing your life with the world. Farewell Obamas and Thanks for Everything! Author: Michee Corleona

Author: Michee Corleona, Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@
