Voting for the Chief

Today friends I am sharing a poem with you that was written by my uncle Cleveland Washington.  Cleveland has written poetry for as long as I can remember. I personally love all of his poems but this one is special and very timely.

VOTING FOR THE CHIEF

 

Deliverance, The key to the right person for OUR COUNTRY

Standing for a belief that’s believable

Engaging in the understanding of like minds

Just like words, they can appear deceivable

A country that gives Us a choice

We speak to our own voice

We don’t march to the starch in the shirt

We march to the cleanliness and how words hurt

Spoken words by some with a fiery soul

While others sit by to see who broke the mold

As you speak with a dragons’ breath

The conquer will speak for itself

VOTING FOR THE CHIEF

GO AHEAD HOLLER IT LOUD

MAKE YOUR VOICE KNOWN AND BE PROUD

This country doesn’t want more WARS

Why fight for other people’s CAUSE?

Where’re losing people so many other ways

We are fighting COVID-19, CANCER, HEART DISEASE,

LUNG DISEASE, MS., AND PNEUMONIA, ETC.

These will be around until the end of days

Whoever you are, a fresh voice needs to be heard,

We know the understanding of where it goes and stays

GOOD LUCK VOTING FOR THE CHIEF

FINALLY GIVE US SOME KIND OF PEACE

 

CLEVELAND L. WASHINGTON, JR.
