Can we be poverty free?
Can we have all that we need?
Yes we can!
Can I surrender all my fears?
Yes I can!
Can you surrender all your fears?
Yes you can!
Can we surrender all our fears?
Can serenity be here?
Can we surrender all our fears?
Yes we can!
Can I begin to heal?
Yes I can!
Can you begin to heal?
Yes you can!
Can we begin to heal
and United dare to feel?
Can we begin to heal?
Yes we can!
Can I realize my dreams?
Yes I can!
Can you realize your dreams?
Yes you can!

Great Vicky. Yesterday was one of those days I think a lot of people in the rest of the world felt like they were Americans too. Nice piece. Malcolm Watts
I sure hope so. Being that my twin sis and I are living on less than $240.00/month (for two people, my VA disability), it's been a rough road to hoe ... I pray that Barack Obama can bring this nation back together. I pray that he will get the help he needs, with these troubled times and two wars. I pray for his safety, and ours. He sounded grateful and amazed: he is a poet, with words. As are you, with these excited words. Well done!
