Ballad
Mrs. Elinor Roosevelt championed society's outcasts
Asians, widows, orphans, blacks -- all those downcast
Yet as six million perished in World War Two
She refused to speak up for a single Jew

Ballad
She’s a stolid sentinel standing on the rugged knoll
Standing silently, alone, like an old, weathered soul,
Over many years she has seen taken a dreaded toll
Many an admirer of hers has championed her goal.

Mr. Mitch McConnell
a Senator back when
Reagan, Mr. Ronald
championed freedom
and liberty's cause...
Now battling a Democrat
McConnell's had to hit pause
Speech no longer free
Thanks Media, BLM, AOC
Mitch bites his tongue
~ A signal to you and me

Political Verse
With the beggar in the street not a word was said
with the child at the grave not a word uttered
when injustice never championed
Hear me humanity read my words
this is my formal resignation
Your rules are not mine to follow
for this life life that i have lived
has left me all but hollow

All judged her.
Even those of us who thought we weren’t.
I was one.
One night we both had to wait for an hour for a bus.
Because it had broken down.
She told me her life story.
It was worse than I had ever imagined.
Suddenly I understood her for the first time.
I championed her after that.

Desmond Tutu raised the moral voice to its height
In dark times showed his countrymen rays of light
Broke the apartheid wall between black and white
Nobel winner championed causes of human rights.

There once was a naïve Southern lassie
who believed some politicians classy.
She swallowed all of their guff
like an Emp'ror in the buff.
and soon found out there was NO guarantee.
She soon hired a civil rights GO team
who championed not one of the fine cream
They got lots of work
for ladies named Dirk,
but that was not what she wanted it seems?

A Liberals take on Carolyn Devonshires Limerick "Unmasked"

Limerick
Obama makes a speech and earns
Four hundred thousand bucks.
Of course he is entitled but
The whole world sighs and clucks.
I frankly don’t think anyone
Deserves that kind of dough
But obviously that’s the rate
For people in the know.
It saddens me a little bit
For such a fee seems greedy,
Especially for someone who
Once championed the needy.
Ideally he should give his talk,
Accepting what they pay,
Then find a worthy charity
And give it all away.

Many born will choose paths in search of glory and fame
And after the dust has settled, not much value remains
Nelson “chose” with open eyes and a passion-filled heart
Despite physical pain and degradation, love kept his soul apart
Evil, he shunned when it would've been easy to embrace
Love, he championed throughout the marathon race
And now at last, peacefully, touched the finish line!
