I had this quote picked out for today:
“If America is anything worth loving, then it’s a promise
that’s never once been spoken, a promise buried so deep
under mountains of wealth and waste, pomp and violence,
that nobody knows if it’s a seed or a stone, a fossil or a future.”
James A. Pearson
Then I saw Rosemerry's poem and realized she has spoken that promise
and done so with such depth of feeling and eloquence it takes my breath away.
It's who we are...I believe it with all I am.
We are "a seed...and a future."
"America, it’s not a president that makes our country great—it’s us.
How we treat each other. "
