Notes About The Poem

The wishes of hope and pray for a incoming  President.

Lead Don't Follow

In Gods shadow, Mr. President!
Just lead! No second guessing,
follow the Nation heart, it’s We the people!
Stay our course, set our goals and execute.
Endure adversity, it’s our strength, 
that sets you apart.
Lead ahead, do not follow.
Stay out in front, out of the shadows, 
don’t follow.
Your first steps, you must listen,
always follow what’s right!
Regenerate the Country roots,
grow us individually and equally,
toward a halo light.
May you feel We the people,
in your spirit, always present by divine.
On the Country journey,
toward one direction,
under truth and leadership defines.
Lead from the front, don’t follow.
Keep proving, keep moving and do not stop.
Toward one direction, 
on the Country journey to the top.
Keep advancing forward, don’t stop.
May the heart of Nation, We the people,
pump your spirit that's present by divine.
Leads our Country on the journey,
toward one compass, we must climb!
Lead don't follow!

Great counselling James - thanks for sharing. I posted a couple of music videos on my Poetic Rhthms YouTube channel which you may like too. They are not on my PS page. Hope you like them. Maria
