Over the "Hump"
Grasses will be greener in the coming years
Flower`s fuller, and prettier
Having been watered with yesterdays tears
We are all soaked in sad memories and sorrows
But no more, for our coming tomorrows
An unknown future we did fear
Then, covid death was looming near
Now, around a corner we did turn
Because for a new way of life we did yearn
We reap what we sow, and all of us know
Up! We have givin` the old ways of livin`
Post "Trump" life, we no longer take in strife
The World has charted a new way
And on this path I hope we stay
The coming days continue to be brighter
The people I meet, their smiles bigger, and mood lighter
We as a community, can now live universally
Respect and admire our diversities
It may take a while, for our actions to compile enough proof
That yes, Americans have dignity, and style,
Excluding of course those that were vile.......
