October 28 Good News In History

OCTOBER 28 GOOD NEWS IN HISTORY!

I picked me a date.
I chose any date.
Reason is that any day is a good news day.
I created my timeline to illustrate.
I invested wisdom within the knowledge gave.
This should make someone smile and shout hoop hoop hooray.
Therefore, here’s some good news today.

A positive maximum is taken on October 28, 1962.
Cuban missile crisis ended through diplomatic pressure.
The President of the U.S.A., which was JFK, demanded dismantling of U.S.S.R nuclear weapons.

Looking further into the pass views a liberated stance.
On October 28, 1886, The Statue of Liberty was given to U.S.A. as a gift from France.

The Good News Papers have arrived.
We want to embrace positivity into our lives.
We tired of writing about criminal minds.
Therefore, we took a brief trip back in time.

Connie Marcum Wong October 29, 2014 at 3:04 AM I enjoyed this little history trip back into time. Our youth need to take history more seriously. Many think it doesn't matter. The older you get, the more it seems to matter. Great poem! Verlena S. Walker October 29, 2014 at 9:17 AM Thanks Connie for your awesome remark. Verlena
