Rico Leffanta Poet Limerick

Fire Works

A nation divided by church and race
With each one determined not to lose face
No minus nor plus
Its,  "them against us"
Hatred unites America's disgrace

* Post Trump, trust in government and
the media is at an all-time low!

Lindsay Laurie July 6, 2021 at 4:55 PM Hello Rico … when a nation is deeply divided Rico, there’s one thing that unites it. A common enemy so that means a war - Lindsay

Ilene Bauer July 5, 2021 at 10:42 AM It’s such a sad situation, Rico, and one I don’t see improving very soon. We can only hope for more united days. Well said!

Suzette Richards July 4, 2021 at 12:59 PM It is a shame that it has come to this. But there is hope when the problem is identified and not to be repeated.

Kim Merryman July 4, 2021 at 12:55 PM In my opinion, we are not the"United" States of America but the "Divided" states of America! God help us! Blessings, Kim M

Thank you for commenting, Tom! Aloha! Rico
