America

A short poem about how I see America today

Our lives, our kids, our country is on the line

Some walk around singing like everything is fine

The fighting, the racism, and the division alone

Can drive one crazy in this circular dome

We need to come together and talk things out

No screaming, no yelling or even a pout

Our learning of one another is a great way to start

Instead of allowing one person to tear us apart

This country had its problems but never like this

It’s time for a change, some happiness, some bliss

The road to recovery is at the tip of our fingers

If you don’t get out and vote, the madness will linger

Our differences can help us in so many ways

Lets all get together and get rid of the craze
