Hopes For The Election
As a mostly quiet American,
I have hopes for the election.
That no matter who wins,
there will be acceptance from
the other side.
Other people and I,
don't want post-election violence,
filling our country's streets.
We don't desire relatives, friends
bitter at their Thanksgiving tables.
I pray as I pen this writing,
that peace descends upon the nation,
so we as the U.S. can go into the
festive time of year with shalom u'vrakha. ~
