LOOKING FOR THE LIGHT

We all make mistakes
Are not always right
We pray that 
The crack in us will be found
So that the Light may enter
We need the light
Must constantly be aware
Of our behavior and deeds
We are not bad people
Essentially we are good
A recent president toured the world
It was an apology tour
Apologizing for the actions of America
It was not necessary and carried no truth
The Light was missing from any of his thinking
Someone comes to this country
In a legal and legitimate way
They had had the perception
That we were an arrogant, selfish nation
Seeking power and world control
What was found was quite different
Americans give of themselves
Sometimes even their lives
Always for the sake of others
They volunteer at home and abroad
To help others in the hour of need
Money is given our of their own pockets
Just about all, of all races, religions and
Ethnic backgrounds are good people
There is love of all people
There is an absence of supremacy 
Among all of the citizens
There is a desire to get along,
Work together, get things done
For the common good
The perception of the abusive demon 
Turned out to be a helping angel
The Light flowed through all of the cracks
Along with the chaos we find goodness
We pray for continued blessings
