Inageration Day 2009 / President Barack Obama

A  is for the apple trees of Johnny Appleseed, 
    planting economic freedom 
    from sea to shining sea.
M is for mother, Madam Liberty,
    honors regrowth, the melting pot of the free.
E  is for emergence, of new thoughts, new lives, new mysteries.
R  is for the richness of cultural diversity.
I   is for a fresh idealism not false idolatry.
A   is for admiration of America¢s bold beauty.

And all that spelled America 
from sea to shining sea.
