it's been years
since I've been able to say
that this country's president
is my president
but I am today
I am so proud
(hopeful too)
to call you my president
President Obama
you are the embodiment
of what this great country stands for
when the world looks upon you
they see one fine reflection of many
in your subtle grace
of just what America can be
tall
proud
Articulate
and free
the mixed heritage of our nation
you reflect for everyone to see
just how far we have come
from what we once had allowed
to be done
to where Rev. Dr. King prayed
we would one day be
the promised land has risen
to unite us all as one race
The American Race
the world can see of us
through you
that we stand once again
one nation under God
indivisible
with liberty
and justice for all
that shining house on a hill
smiling for all who come
to see her
now behold
our newest pride hope and joy
leader of the free world
(we hope and will vote for)
Barack Obama
my dear so beloved sir
we praise you for your chosen
journey
in an obvious ground swell of
gratitude
for this truly is 'A Moment Of Hope
To Be Savored'.............................
