Magnum Mania!

I hope you have more luck on your surf ski of life than our boy Thomas did on this day.



Happy birthday America!

A little poem I wrote a few years ago ..... and an addition recently added.

Independence Day Renku ~

Men of means and not
Gathered 'round a principle
None were born higher

Individual strands each
Woven, unifying strength

A land of Freedom
Based on Liberty, Justice
Inspiring ideals

Passed down from the Ancient Greeks
Breathed new life by the English

Our experiment
Of, by and for the people
A light for the world .....

Is being challenged from within
As takers undermine pride

Rising corrupt class
Redistributions purchase
Allegiance, future

"Ask not what" has fled the scene
Replaced by "in it for me"

Ideals are untaught
What unified now divides
The woven strands fray

Same back atchya buddy.....and everybody else here and across this vast land.

Good day for Lee Greenwood....except the "pride" seems to be diminishing as referenced in your poem.

None of us knows exactly how it's going to play out, but right now, things don't look real "rosy" for the future.

Time will tell......it always does.

Everybody have a safe and happy Independence Day!

If you go out in the ocean today....take a buddy along!
