Summer Reflection
I remember summers past
My arms around pretty women
Making love on the beach or in a car
Summer brings romance in its wake
The years come and go
This evening I flipped on my "Festival of Lights:" CD
Soon autumn will come with the NY Giants
heading off to battle
and the high holiday services
which I always used to attend with my father
He is gone now
But I'm still here!
The presidential elections are coming, too
Someone will win - others go down to defeat
Our nation survives, friends
For all its faults - it is our homeland
Let us hope love triumphs over hate
So we Americans can continue to live decent lives
