Running down the back, will or will not attack, the incoming flack.

Life rough and tough
so many have had enough
Day in and day out
politicians words
carry less clout
Terrorism roaming about
Love ones sick and dying
little children hungry
and crying

Everyday it gets tougher
to survive
got to have back bone
to rejuvenate and revive
especially after life and
all the fools jive
Question remains can
you still thrive

Only the strong survive
the strong help the weak
together they both
get a break
We all have back bone
especially when we stand
together and not alone
Then do away with
the cold heart of stone

I LOVE THESE LINES GRADY.....

Only the strong survive
the strong help the weak
together they both
get a break
We all have back bone
especially when we stand
together and not alone
Then do away with
the cold heart of stone

AMEN!! Love Holly
