TIMES ARE A CHANGING


May, June, July, new Presidents and Prime
Ministers elected world-wide,
Politicians, crossing the floor, patronizing 
The other side,
Finally striving for what we all hope, 
Peace and unity,
But the yellow  canary haired man has for
Years acted with impunity.
Could a Utopia exist in these
Chaotic times.
Kamala is hot on his heels for in two months
All will be said and done,
Will democracy hear the bells chime,
As the poll numbers rise which would
Be first prize,
As Humpty Dumpty loses his 
Landslide win,
And Democracy walks away with
A grin,
As the aged wann-a-be President’s
Predictions wear thin.
OR 
Will this man actually come to pass,
Destiny is in the making,
Winner takes and will have a worldwide
Platform for the taking,
The East it seems have with him
Become somewhat chummy,
Quite a risk don’t you think, but all will 
Soon be revealed honey.

I was told by a co-worker back in the 1970's that he was a fraud; she had lived in New York and told many stories of the damage he'd done, who he really was and what. Democracy must survive or we'll be a Fascist state. When I think of the people who gave their lives to beat the Nazi party; this should never have happened.

Yes, Jenny....summer madness grips the minds of voters in several parts of the world. The outcome can be pleasantly surprising ~ or the other way round! Most of us want fair elections in which honest politicians get the peoples votes. Pretty words and promises are a bait that 'fish' should be wary of!! } Warm regards & Hugs my friend // paul

We are waiting for the crucial turn in politics and the future of democracy within the coming two three months. No one can predict the turn of events. So much speculations are in the air. You have written so powerfully about the uncertainties and possibilities that will soon take shape in a few month's time. However we don't have to stay in suspense for long. The picture will be clear in a short while. Politics is not my cup of tea and I am not eligible to comment on topics related to politics. But I greatly enjoyed your evaluation of the political scenario. Sending you much love and blessings, dear Jenny !
