Sincerity sticks to some
like a shiny penny sticks to a naked @ss.
It soon falls off and leaves no lasting impression.
President Abraham Lincoln
His life for the Union gave
He hearkened to his conscience
And dared to free the slaves
America
Is the protein of the world
America
Is the candle of Liberty
( To my role model in courage Abraham Lincoln)
Lincoln, your honesty gave you a name
Death surrounded you in all kinds of ways
Civil War gave you the worst kind of fame.
Wonder if you ever had any good days?
Todays blessing comes by way of Abraham Lincoln
who, in his life, saw his share of tragedy…
‘Is it possible we’re all blessed’ he said
‘to be as happy as we make up our minds to be?’
Abraham Lincoln: “With malice toward none, with charity for all.”
George Wallace: “Callous toward all, with charity to none.”
Alexandra Cortez: “Braless toward all, nothing for no one.”
One of the greatest US Presidents, Abraham Lincoln;
Lead the United States through its greatest crisis. Great lion.
Principles of democracy, nationalism,
Equal rights, liberty and republicanism.
crisis resolved but his desire visiting the Holy Land?
Let me breathe fresh air
Let me fly like a bird
Let me flow like a river
Let me move like a wave
Let me bloom like a flower
Let me glow like a firefly
Freedom is what I want
Release Me..
If Slavery is not wrong nothing is wrong.
Abraham Lincoln.
Riverview Park
Long ago along a winding river in the city of big shoulders
There stood a place a magical kingdom
Once on a summer night when I was young I went there
I met Abraham Lincoln and Santa Claus and rode upon a rocket ship
I’m quite sure that It was all real, but they tell me it is no more
Power With Influence
Give a man much power and influence,
And with their character see congruence;
Crusty complex inferior;
Wishing was superior;
Things will become terse as well as tense.
Think Abraham Lincoln said something
similar to this. Today is anniversary of
the Darnell, Arizona Granite Mountain
Hotshots.
Abraham Lincoln was America's Unexpected Jesus
Booth spilled this stream of blood along the Mason-Dixon line
Calls for forgiveness and reunion since the Gettysburg Address
Did bring out the better angels of our natures in 1865
Eventually celebrated in Memorial Day since 1866
Few nations in civil wars or uncivil, have a Lincoln or Jesus
Written by Gail DeBole
When a turkey, who yearly escapes
From his owner's Thanksgiving plate,
Was asked to reveal
Why he's never a meal
He said, "That much of a turkey I ain't!"
Note: Thanksgiving is celebrated on the fourth Thursday of each November in the United States. President Abraham Lincoln proclaimed this as an official holiday in 1863.
Pretty, peach face, lovebird, parrot
avian melody sings.
Hoping to call a mate over for carrots
and dance love on their wings.
Busily preparing a proper nest
for the fruition of the mating call.
Abraham Lincoln "I say try-if we never try, we shalll never succeed."
I have decided to make this my motto, I will keep trying till I get it right!

Each day should teach us
that every moment is a treasure.
But time, our most valuable asset, we all ignore,
and our numbered days no one can measure,
nor inside each day what lays in store.
“In the end, It’s not the years in your life that count,
it’s the life in your years.”
Abraham Lincoln
Don’t waste your life with regretful tears.
“It’s not the years in your life,
It’s the life in your years”
Abraham Lincoln spoke these words,
Some of the wisest I’ve ever heard.
By these wise words I work or I play.
This day is as precious as one to come
And the longest has but a very brief stay.
Each is a part of the total sum
And much too important to fritter away.
Abraham Lincoln once said
The best way
To predict
The future
Is to
Create it.
He also said
That if he had six hours
To hew a tree
He would spend four hours
Honing the axe
And two hours
To cut the tree.
The World is spending
Vast amounts of time
Effort and money
Honing the dagger.
What beast
Does the world
Want to slay?
What future does the World
Want to create?
Abraham Lincoln
A secular person who stood against the elite and ended slavery
A Prolific President and brand ambassador of bravery
One Man Army and Alpha Bravo Charlie
An example of honesty for dishonest democrats and those who lie
We don't give and we don't serve
Hell deserves us and hell is what we deserve.
Abraham Lincoln
the American Civil War
Thousands of white people
paid with their live's
To stop Slavery
fighting to make a better world
black live's matter
all lives matter
Slavery had been around
for thousands of year's
all cultures all colours had slave's
people woke up
people turned against abuse
people turned against slavery
we should be proud of people
both white and black
If you have an X on your hand’s palm
It means you have leadership in your charm
And it seems only 3 percent of people have it
And so if you do your leadership abilities will fit
Abraham Lincoln and Alexander the Great had this sign
It shows that there may be some truth to this line
But in contemplation and the worry of it all
Is that Putin of Russia has this sign in mind.

Abraham Lincoln called it The Last Full Measure
When your life is given with no thought for yourself whatsoever
Whether it be in war or an emergency so grave
That others run away and it’s left to the brave
Their friends and colleagues remember them
And what they did for others in their end
So as flags at half mast flutter in the breeze
They sleep in silence and we take a knee.

I have heard it said
that poetry will outlast all the politicians
Well - this is one poet who follows the political scene
There have been politicians who wrote poems
Abraham Lincoln and Eugene McCarthy come to mind
I think poetry can change one's thinking
if you let it into your soul
The poetry in the Jewish prayer book
and the poetry of Bob Dylan
have influenced my thiniking
I will vote this September
Isn't that what they died for?

Time, I’ve found, is unforgiving,
It cannot be bartered or given away.
It’s consumed each day while living,
And can’t be added to a future day.
I’ve said “if only I could find more time,”
While searching throughout my day.
I saw time flee with each clock chime,
Finding more time was just a clich’e.
“nothing valuable can be lost by taking time”
Abraham Lincoln
During the campaign of 1860
a young girl wrote Abe Lincoln a letter
She told him he looked too boyish
to be Pres. With a beard, he'd do better
Lincoln gave it some thought and declared
She's right! I'm grateful someone cared...
Eight score years later, a brave soul told Mr. Trump
If he'd just wear a mask, his support would increase
But Mr. Trump didn't listen; he's no Abraham Lincoln
You know what happened: In the end he got fleeced
Moonbeams come
through the glass in the room,
and shine on this candle lit sight;
Carolina Jasmine is in full bloom,
and kerosene lights the night.
The Whigs...debate politics,
while two men play at chess.
I entertain...them tonight,
as I am divinely...dressed.
But then his hand brushes mine,
he's Abraham Lincoln.
No money at all, and ambitions,
some...say he'll never see,
but he and the sharp mind
that he has, is exactly...
what I seek.
