OBAMA 2008!
Global justice billions crave
Revolution now… the wave.
Fresh solutions far and wide
Peace procurement now…the tide.
On waves and tides of cosmic scale
audacity and hope now sail.
OBAMA 2008!
U. S. poverty must Go.
A conscientious overthrow.
The working poor, the down and out.
Revolution now…the shout.
Vote ones heart… evolve… transcend
the Wisdom Way to comprehend.
VICTORY 2008!
A living wage for one and all.
Resolution now…the call.
Civil rights again restore.
Revolution! … Just once more.
The Common Dream now full force…
a visionary, gutsy course.
OBAMA 2008!
Universal health care, Yes!
Congress HAS it, are WE less?
Equal rights across the board.
Resolution now… the chord.
Americans, a lively blend,
pilot the progressive trend.
VICTORY 2008!
Peaceful revolution, Yes!
The human race to coalesce.
One Creator, over ALL.
One last chance to heed the Call —
Love’s the lesson. Life’s the school.
Peace On Earth. The Golden Rule.
Live the Lesson. Heal our Earth…Imagine
Transformation now. Rebirth!
OBAMA

A lovely piece Ms. Alice and thank you for sharing it here with Christopher’s readers.
Beautiful sentiments. Thank you for getting Monday off to a great start.
I guess we won’t be seeing any poetry about Hillary? 🙂
Lovely! My feelings too, Alice. I hope Obama sees this.
How sweet!
Wonderful! I don’t see much political poetry, so this is a treat. Thanks Alice.
Obama is not my first choice for president, but this wonderful poem reflects many of his qualities and his promise and I could support him if no other candidates rise to the top…Can you hear me, Mr Gore?!
A Gore/Obama ticket would be very satisfying.
Rachel, if you like political poetry that will rock you:
