Curtis Moorman Poet Rhyme

What Lies Ahead

WHAT LIES AHEAD

The end of two thousand eleven
Marked a milestone in history
It's gone, but not forgotten
But what lies ahead for you and me

Is it still a broken economy
Or things not made in the USA
Will America become bankrupt
Have we gone that far astray

I pray things will get better
For America, for me, for you
That our values will be restored
Now that the times are new
