A White Orchid:

by yup tab

A new generation arises,

Like the early morning sun awakening

Too suddenly,

Pausing momentarily;

Its soft rays, hovering over the vast horizon;

A sea of expectant faces,

Waves of joyous, elated people,

Young and old, hand in hand.

Footsteps and more footsteps,

Walking, running;

All following in the footsteps,

Footprints of another time and place;

A different era dawns,

Recollecting the horrendous tragedies of the past era,

Remembering those already lost to eternity,

Recalling one brief memory

Inscribed upon the face of history,

“I have a dream.”

Truth merges with imminent reality;

The economy is at stake,

Global economic woes abound;

A tentative solution,

No idle hands,

A life of continual service,

More dedication;

Obama’s inauguration finalized;

A new presidency confirmed.

A first for the world!

A white orchid, with a mauve center,

Bursts into blossom;

Symbolic of new birth;

A black bird,

Tenuously perched on a snow bank,

Immediately takes flight;

Employment concerns,

A fragile agenda

On the same table of time;

Opportunity always knocking;

Major political transition acknowledged,

Welcomed across the nation,

The entire world watching and waiting,

Anticipating the inevitable changes;

An historical event of tremendous magnitude,

Major global concerns,

World peace;

Waves of desperate people

Rising above the sea of despair;

Crowds of human expectation,

Exuberance beyond measure;

A celebration of hope;

Love,

The common dream for all;

From a Canadian perspective,

A mere poet’s words;

Powerful words,

Embraced in faith;

A triple amen,

“So be it, so be it, so be it.”

Children in the White House;

A mass appeal to people everywhere;

A worldwide embrace of unity,

Another challenge;

A brand new chapter in time,

Just begun;

Re-emancipation proclamation,

Jubilation re-visited,

Re-made,

A better way;

Congratulations, America,

You did it!

Remake America?

Or continue to build America,

Based upon a broader scope of human understanding;
