I pause “For purple mountain majesties”
yet that’s not all that my heart sees
There “above the fruited plain”
Souls cry out for justice in their pain.
“America,...

Honor the Gracious DoormanElegant traditions slowly fade.
A life of service, a worthy trade.
Helping others is its own reward;
inherent virtue can't be ignored.
Wear a tie, tip your hat,
shine your shoe, don a spat.
That's the proper way to do;
adopt a cultured world view.
Bow to kings, royals 'n mates;
respect heads of...

Walking on a new track
Leaving better tracks for our brothers and sisters

I am suspect about his abilities
And how he won has...

Unconditional LoveLove isn't just a single word or feeling
Said to tickle an ear and leave you reeling
Nor is love abstract and void of care
But what one envisions and does all year
We convey our love by things that we do
When a loved one is hurting we hurt...

Stop discrimination between the ruling and opponent one,

Our forefathers may not be happy with us,
Is it the same India they dreamed...

The Ambiguous VoterBe cold or hot
with the faith you’ve got,
The lukewarm are headed south.
He vomits them from His mouth.
Be careful at whose table you eat;
if His Word is not welcome,
shake their dust from your feet.
A presidential pick
A thorn’s poisonous prick
in the back side
of...

I remember that your prayer was that you would not only
Grow to be very old, but that you would be a healthy aged one.

8 Haikus8 Haikus
Hands folded in my lap
like dying birds
I wave and they fly again
Feet tap like nervous hens
pecking for crumbs
I have nothing to feed them
My heart pounds like the neighbor
on the wall
I cannot wish it away
I try to write about beauty
Black marks on paper
That is the...

Culminating Rivalry,Commencing BrotherhoodStill waiting for the peace to establish,
The grudge for each other must finish;
67 years is not small period,
To see the 2 nations fighting weird;
Even the Germans made their wall fall,
And the Americans ended civil war;
Politics putting the brotherhood at stake,
What the delegates do with every...
