Ode To the President

Ode to the President

As Commander and Chief you took an oath,
To lead the us on a path, of economic growth,
Opposition at your feet, never conceding defeat,
A battle well fought, are words bearing repeat!

As an advocate for clean energy, both here and abroad,
Your agenda on climate change; put us all on one accord.
Mended relations with Cuba, has opened many doors,
For business deals and travel ease, like the memories of 54’!

Our seniors’ see the light, at the tunnels grim dark end,
With healthcare reform, many faces are wearing a grin.
Your accomplishments are many, and I’ve listed just a few,
With purpose driven vision, results are always in plain view!

Eight years is but a short time, to bring back normalcy,
To the United States of America, the land that we call “Free”
