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 Curtis Moorman 2/11/2012

With this write, I see you could not possibly use the word "happy". You told it as it is, Curtis. Congratulations on winning Honorable Mention with this entry.
