I remember a nation that once was united
A people together and not so divided,
A time when together we stood hand in hand
United in purpose defending our land.
We would tackle our problems, resolve them as one
We’d solve them together whatever might come.
I pray we can focus, find ways to agree,
Shine a light in the darkness to help us all see.
As we focus on others, the problems they face,
We’ll break down the walls built of color or race.
We’re each one unique and we each have a role,
It’s not about skin but the shape of our soul.
I pray as a nation we seek common ground,
And all work together as issues are found.
If we all come together, have common resolve,
There’s nothing we’re facing that we cannot solve.
I felt happy to see you posted a poem today, John! Such important words and I love the phrase, “shape of our soul.”
Thank you John for your words of hope.
