Conservative Poet Tom Zart's = OBAMA AND THE HINGE OF HISTORY
by Tom Zart OBAMA AND THE HINGE OF HISTORY The hinge of history swings in all directions As the happenings of the past are written down. Out of all that has occurred since man's beginnings Less has been recorded than waits to be found. Babylonians kept chronicles of history Hebrews wrote the past as a dramatic story. Greeks had no faith in the future at all Believing mans repeated errors doom his glory. Christians added a new dimension to history Looking forward to Christ's return to earth. An on going drama involving man and God Believing all are created of equal worth. Some have asked why must we study history It just encourages us to live in the past. When we forget history we repeat its mistakes As the outcome of humanity is cast. FORMIDABLE FOE Fellow Americans America is the birthday cake of earth As the ants march from every direction. Thank God for all who have sworn to defend her Serving with love, honor, pride, and affection. Since the first day George Washington marched off to war There have been those who have wished our demise. Their hatred, fueled by jealousy and greed Was defeated by our brave and the wise. Once again, we must face a formidable foe Who have pledged by their God to destroy us all Misusing their faith as an excuse to kill As for a worldwide jihad, their leaders call. Some say we should try to appease them For if we resist, they'll hate us even more. But the David's among us shall cast our stones Defeating them, as it was done before. AFTER DEATH The joy of life is like a fading flower And the wrath of death is to shrivel and decay. Committing our spirits to either right or wrong Simply by how we choose to live our night or day. After death the wicked cease to be troublesome And all who are weary have forever to rest. People who apply their heart to seek out wisdom Are lovingly remembered by all they have blessed. Let there be no sad farewell after we have gone Hopefully to heaven, where worthy souls live on. Searching for reunion with others we once knew Be they Christian, Buddhist, Muslim, Hindu or Jew.
