Rabbits are The Enemy!

There’s No Dispute!

Whoever claimed that rabbits are

 Sweet? Soft?  And Cute?

Rabbits flaunt their tails at Man

as through the lawn they hop,

savoring sweet garden tastes

while they eat up the crop.

May beauty fill your eyes today,

and kindness fill your heart…

a spark of generosity

touch ev’rything you start.

We stand as one to show that we

believe in our Democracy.

We speak together with one voice

to tell the world we’ve made our choice.

We stand for truth against the lies

that masquerade in false disguise.

We speak ‘gainst those who foster hate…

….the meanness meant to separate..

…the cuelty that breaks apart

the kindness of our country’s heart.

We stand together, hand in hand.

Let freedom ring throughout this land!

We speak up – Clear! –to tell the world

Old Glory soars. Full. High. Unfurled.

The Stars and Stripes still mean that we

 have hearts that burn for liberty.

We take to ev’ry street and town

to show the world we don’t give ground

to those who’d seize our liberty

and crush our mandate to be free.

We stand together, hand in hand.

Let freedom ring across this land!

Devils live in our devices.

Siren calls perforce entice us

to believe that Luddites—we–

can gain a touch of mastery.

But we had better understand

that Devils have the upper hand.

They will use their wily vices

to  control our weak devices.

Where are the singers of protest?

Where are the voices who can

lift up the heart of a nation and

challenge the conscience of man?

Where are the songs that re-charge us?

Remind of our dream to be free?

Offer a hope for our freedom?

And all in three-part harmony?

May this day for you be blessed.

May you go forth in happiness.

May your toils and troubles cease.

May you find a heart at ease.

This day.

I wish for you a day of bliss

that’s sweeter than a baby’s kiss…

that ev’ry moment you pass through

will bring a joyful lift to you.

I hope this blessing brings you joy

and lifts your life today.

I hope it adds to happiness

and speeds you on your way.

Where are the voices of protest?
Where is the challenge in song?

 Where are the words to remind us

that hate and injustice are wrong?

Where are the calls to consider

that ev’ryone yearns to be free?

Where is the music of conscience,

that rings out in pure harmony?

It’s a Very Troubling time to be…

for daily folks like you and me.

We try to hear and understand

what’s going on across this land.

We want to know what’s real and true

to do the best that we can do.

But Man’s behavior is perplexing.

Quite confusing.  Often vexing. So….

Is Man a blotch on history

or shaper of what’s yet to be?

Is Man a fumbling, Cosmic curse

or darling of the Universe?

Or both?

Dilemma.
