Joseph P. DiMino Poet Free verse

The Us Constitution

Laws are the framework
for an orderly society – 
we subject ourselves
to them, not because they
are perfect, but because
we realize and acknowledge
our own imperfections, and
a need to be governed
uniformly by something
outside the individual…

God gave us the Bible –

And our forefathers
guided by Heaven’s great
example wrote the US
Constitution; not to 
supersede His Holy Worship,
but to affirm the Lord’s Presence
in the spirit of His rightly free
man….

Geoffrey Brewer December 21, 2020 at 7:30 AM Well said, Joe. As a Brit, I can view (and admire) without prejudice: the US Constitution and the ‘Declaration of Independence’. It is sad that so many Americans do not realise what jewels of philosophy they have in these documents. Joseph P. DiMino December 24, 2020 at 6:18 AM Very kind of you, and thoughtful to take precious time and comment. Your support means a lot to me. Blessings my friend.
