A very deep and thought provoking write, Kel.
I think you are right and we should give this new president a chance to show us what he is made of!
There is so much bad stuff going on in the world today....when you sit down and really think about it, it is enough to make you break down and cry a river of tears:(

Hugs,

5/5 Ingrid

Wonderfully Penned!!!

Very nice write. Strong enough and thought provoking. Enjoyed your write.

Very insightful write. I felt great hope, joy and pride on election night. There was also some anxiety. Your poem captures all of those emotions. You are right, Change will take time. Good Job!

Open the eyes don't be blind,
Being 'different' let it shine

I really liked these lines.

Why all these discriminations.

That's a question, requiring a question mark. ^_^

I really read this as a powerful speach. It was more than a poem. The part where you pointed out how much people are focusing on what people look like, and ignoring everything else going on, that was a lovely way to highlight the blindness of people.

It was perfect.

Five out of five.

Bravo!!! It needs gr8 guts to write such a wonderful poem. I remember a gr8 poet from this commenting about my poem Taboo... He said there's a fine line between preaching and getting things into notice. You have wonderfully dealt with such a sensitive topic. Hats off to you. I would be stupid if I dont rate it a 5/5.

Wow. Well done! Reading this poem, I'm thinking.. wow. LOL. you did great!
There is so much happening in this world, that we don't even know half about.
It's important that we all think about what we are doing to create such havoc in this world.
Well done, a good write.
5/5
