Good and Bad

Good and Bad,
Right and Wrong,
wave the silly words away.
This is wisdom to be strong,
this is virtue to be gay.
Let us sing and dance until we shall know the final art,
how to banish good and ill with laughter of the heart.

The Colors of Freedom

To the social media managers, admins and for those of you who post,
Writers, editors, chaplains, parents and educators from coast to coast.
Our freedoms aren't granted by just one faith's might,
But by those who serve and have served for every American’s right.
They fought for the right to vote for the candidate of our choice,
For every American’s right, to have a voice.
No matter the color of their skin, their age or sexual preferences,
Atop each Vets headstone you’ll discover a variety of religious references.
From every religion, every spiritual path,
It’s our Soldiers who continue to face the aftermath.
Not just the Christian, the Hindu, the Jew,
The Muslim, the Buddhist, to name but a few.
Our military's color is not black, white, or tan,
It's the color of FREEDOM, our Vets the Sacrificial Clan.
It’s RACE that disconnected us, RELIGION that separated us,
POLITICS divided us, and our WEALTH has set us apart.
Please remember this truth as you post from afar,
Our unity's strength makes us who we are.
For the military's color is but ONE, it's clear,
It's the color of FREEDOM that we all hold dear.

Too Late

Thinking of her day and night,
wrinkled, withering, hair turning white.

Wish I had time to write her a letter,
naw, she's alright, she always gets better.

I finally wrote her, too late,
she had passed away.
