Notes About The Poem

In God We Trust - 1

On our dollars We see the words “In God We Trust” Spelled out for us there Across green currency Is the hope that brings us Insight into what our forefathers Longed to see in our country Since the tragedy of civil war We’ve been known as The United States United being the word That penetrates through our thoughts To remind us that we aren’t Just Republicans or democrats We aren’t a party We are the UNITED states If we live as we should… Reminding ourselves that it is… “In God we Trust” And the United States We may discover that we have The opportunity to share Our thoughts, our hearts, our feelings Without riots or demonstrations But with kindness and consideration Together, we might discover We can get along with one another Through faith in the God of love And prayers sent up from us To bring us back to the joined hope That comes from sharing this land And living in reverence and devotion To the One who created every man! God bless the USA

This is a wonderful piece of writing, Gina. You have expressed what is on many of our minds. I agree. This poem should be widely read at public gatherings, IMHO.

Sadly many people do not want "In God WE Trust" seen on the money. They do not even want money at all. They want a cashless society. I could go on and on but I won't. this is very lovely, and it echoes my own sentiments.
