It's an idea alright, but l doubt God is going to intervene. We really need to get back to caring about one another, that's the solution. We are all in this together. I wish you luck in the contest. :)

Thanks for your kind comments, but God has continued to bless us even tho we told him to get out of everything. It's time to ask God to come back and guide our leaders. Our leadership needs God, BIG TIME!
LOL, I hope I didn't sound too preachy in my reply. This is just such a scary time for America.

Thanks for your kind comments. God has continued to bless us even tho we told him to get out of everything. Can you imagine if He would be allowed back in the White House? It's time to ask God to come back and guide our leaders. Our leadership needs Him
Thank you again!

It's all good... tis a trying time for many.
Comment from Debbie D'Arcy
A powerful and pertinent quote well complemented with your 5-7-5 verse. If so many doubts and jeopardy remain on both sides and suitability is an issue, maybe we should look inwards at ourselves and ask the question: what's wrong with us and how have we got to this kind of division? Thanks for sharing your excellent, thought-provoking verse. Good luck! Debbie

There is so much truthfulness and hindsight within your few short words.
I love the reference to President Lincoln... such great advice.

Excellent 5-7-5 form that captures the current state of affairs in the country. "Is either side capable" is a prefect line that reflects our choices and questions our current political climate.

What I like about this is that it gets to the point in a small space. This country has turned away from God, I think. And look what we have for choices in this election. I don't like either candidate, I don't think Harris is qualified and Trump I don't trust anymore. It seems to me more and more the halls of power and 'justice' are in the control of Wall Street. And actually I feel more and more at odds with the culture and values of this country. In the last twenty years or so it really has changed. estory

Hi
This is a good senryu about the falling state of your country. It is hard to say whether Vice President Kamala Harris will bring some healing the deep fracture, but I think she may do a better job than ex-president Donald Trump.
Good luck in the contest.
Keep writing and stay healthy
Have a great day.
Joan

Wow - what a timely quote in the light of the times we now live in. It's veritably prophetic in its observation and stance. Thanks for sharing this with us and a picture of the author of the quote.

Yes, Lincoln, one of the only true American presidents I can say I was very proud of. However, he was from the 1800s. And yes, the quote on the picture was his and the bottom one of course was my own. Thank you so much for the very kind words for this post.

This us so true. It can happen to our country. We don't want a dictatorship. Nice use of the quote from
Abe Lincoln. We definitely need God's guidance. He is in control.

Comment from patcelaw
It is a big shame that our country is so divided right now. Have we have one choice we could either do what God is asking us to do and do it in a way that honors him or we can go completely in the devil's way it is everyone's choice, but I hope people will choose God's way. Patricia.

Thank you Patrica, that was exactly my point in my 5-7-5.
Nobody is capable unless they do it with God's help. It just isn't possible.
That is why I wrote this, because what has been going on the last four years is not working. Our property taxes (for senior citizens ) went up over 300% this year.
What do they want to do, have me pay for housing for all the people they let across the border and promise them everything for free it seems.
Thanks so much for the lovely comments.
