The Obama presidency in the US and its significance to the oneness of the human race. |
All for President Barack Obama First (in 2008) a Poem, "America By Obama" Now (in 2012) an Acrostic, "Champion of Change" America By Obama “I have a dream… I have a dream.” “…The colour of a man’s skin… Of no more significance Than the colour of his eyes…” They had a dream, yes they dreamt a dream! Martin Luther King Jr. had a dream; The wailing Bob Marley dreamt a dream. America, everyone’s America, the dream of existence: Africans, Asians, Jews, Arabs, Europeans, Whites, Blacks, Coloured, Everyone, All; One people, big mission, Great Nation. America, our America, the big dream! Africa, our Africa, the dream defined; By latitude and longitude, centre of the world; At equinox and solstice, heart of human race. Africa for America, the centre holds tight; America by Africa, the heart beats right. “In God we trust,” Obama sets the stage; America, super-great America, land of opportunities; Obama for America, the biggest opportunity. America, sky-bound America, land of flights; America by Obama, the safest flight. “In God we trust,” Obama holds the State; America, everyone’s America, land of freedom; Obama for America, the freest state. America, our America, land of dreams; America by Obama, the dream fulfilled! Champion of Change Bring on the leader, the speaker, the seer; Attention please! for this is not an accident: Real dream, even in kindergarten, At a time he wanted to be President.. Cause of peace he dreamt to promote, Keen on a mission without a precedent. Opportunity availed, prosperity restored By the rivers of the American dream; Assailed with doubt, cynicism, but yes, he can: Marvellous in our eyes, historic in our mind. Arise, stand up, for the champion of change. |
