        44th

    You were selected before you were elected
    Had you notice the doors that were closed, you might have
    forfeited the opportunity of focusing on the one's that were
    open
    The will of God will never take you where the Grace of God
    will not protect you, so, keep listening to the voice in you
    The one who has selected you will continue to direct you
    You have given hope and dreams to many in this Land and,
    in foreign Lands
    You have turned non believers into believers
    Outsiders into insiders saying in unison; yes we can.........
    change
    You have brought joy to the world
    In the eyes of many, you have risen, from obscurity to
    glory
    You are a breath of hope
    Because of you, unity has come to the fore front as the world
    faces an economic down turn
    Nations are watching you as you carry the world upon your
    shoulders
    What a burden you bear
    Your selector is still your director
    Do not bear witness of the misfortunes of today but for what
    comes out of it tomorrow
    Greatness is in your path
    You are the leader of the free world
    You can be crowned as one of the greatest if not the greatest
    Commander in Chief in this marvelous and glorious land
    of ours
    Your star has ascended

    May God guide your footsteps to protect you and yours
    from harm as he blesses you with the endeavors that he has
    bestowed upon you


    ELIMINATION OF A PEOPLE

    After all that was done

    All that was said

    The pain and suffering that were caused, and
    The pain and suffering that were endured, for
    The lives that were taken

    The homes that was broken

    The families that were separated from their love ones

    Properties that were stolen

    The dignity that was stripped

    You expect me to forget?

    After hearing many cry, they took my pride;

    You think you have heard it all

    The rest of the story reveals more atrocities like,

    Mass murders by executioners and willing civilians

    They voluntarily participated in genocide

    Women and children were gather only to be slaughtered like
    animals, while many congregated as if it were a concert or
    some kind of entertainment

    Then again, to some sick, twisted minded person it was

    They took pictures to hang as trophies;

    We are suppose to love one another not kill each other

    Why do we destroy each other?

    Why are we so obsessed in killing?

    Why do we constantly inflict mental/physical pain on each
    other?
    Why?


     FIRST LADY

    You are our lady of compassion

    Twenty one months you showed nothing but love for your
    family without hesitation

    You are our lady of Grace

    You are out lady of Glamour

    Your elegance and charm radiate throughout our universe

    You are our lady of Calm

    You stayed composed as darts were thrown at your
    husband

    You gracefully embraced the force that tried to increase your
    adrenalin

    You are our First Lady

    Our lady of tranquility, dignity, empathy, elegance and
    refinement

    You have the coveted spot; it's your spot,

    God will not give you more than you can handle, and you
    can handle it confidently


    A FOOL IN LOVE

    We shared a friendship that transformed into love

    I loved you equally as you loved me

    "So I thought"

    You fed me with lies

    That will last until I am a hundred and sixty five

    "To live that long would be extra punishment"

    All those years I trusted you immensely

    In retrospect, you were my confidant

    You made a fool of me

    The way you caressed me, now intrigues me

    You tried to possess me

    You led me and bled me

    In the name of love I followed unconsciously

    I fell apart, as you left me with a broken heart

    There were moments; I was bewildered and blue

    Like a fool wondering what had come over you

    Now I know exactly what I am going to do

    Thanks, I owe it all to you


         A REMARKABLE MAN

    There was an energetic and witty man

    Who gave his love to every one

    Never complained, couldn't give a damn about bureaucratic
    and sophisticated plans

    Reached out his hand to the need of every passing man

    He sang sweet songs every opportunity he had

    Dance to the music like no other man

    As the years came and vanished

    His energy started to diminished

    His wit remained aglow

    He continued to let his love flow

    Desirous to go
