Sedoka 10

Death Valley -
on a sickly branch
an eagle is perched

hoping against hope
for America to change it's way,
but oh how it is!

We should take to the streets like we used too. These times are so tame. Hope isn't going to do it. Take care, Richard

I'm reminded of a quote (by who I don't know). It showed a picture of a man on a sailboat and it went like this... "The pessimist complains about the wind, the optimist expects it to change, the realist adjusts the sails". Actions speak louder than words and expectations... glad you liked!

Hope is good, but hope doesn't change things by itself. Thanks for reading!
