Uniquely American: The Red, White and Blue

      

America sang a song last night,

Its darkened sky burst into light;

In crimson hues, it sang of hope:

An optimist's kaleidoscope...

At least the world can vary sweet

Amidst life's reckoning,

Against defeat...

Independence speaks for all;

Red, white and blue

Inspires, enthralls...

July the 4th makes sundown best;

Pyrotechnic images

Emerge quite well-dressed;

Each one delivers,

Robust and strong;

America's symphony,

Exploding in song!!

“In olden days a glimpse of stocking was looked on as something shocking. Now, Heaven knows, anything goes. The world has gone mad today, and good's bad today, and black's white today, and day's night today....”

"IT AIN'T SO MUCH A QUESTION OF NOT KNOWING WHAT TO DO"

McConnell's a man who CAN say "NO",

Force is his favorite 'food';

With or without a cloture vote

He's in a NEGATIVE mood...

When Dems attempt to reconcile:

As bipartisan as they can surely be,

Mitch soon becomes intransigent,

So obstinate /intractable is he!!

Just a guy who loves to say "NO" !
