America the Beautiful

America awoke this morning,
and She asked herself,
"Is this where I expected
to be on my 232nd birthday?"
I feel her pain -- I felt the same
and I am 199 years younger than She.
Oh, She knows She is still beautiful.
She knows the future still lays sweetly at her feet.

Just because the reality does not match the dream
does not mean that the dream is dead.
Happy Birthday, America, I love you
and your dreams with all of my heart.
