Visions of Today

The moon has receded from sight And now the sun shines down on our verdant earth Where are the lovers of yesterday? Have they faded into shadow? Or are they ghosts haunting the polling booths? The election is coming The vast majority of Americans will decide the fate of our land Shall hate rule the day? Looks like it might! So enjoy the sunshine while ye may for it may soon be time for the war of love versus hate to begin
