America Is Built on a Foundation of Hope

Dear Subscriber:

Each week we examine a theme from a variety of points of view. The theme for this week, in honor of American Independence Day (July 4th), is America.

I welcome comments on my poems at https://nicholasgordon.blogspot.com .

A poem for American Independence Day (July 4th) about America and hope:

America is built on a foundation of hope.
Maybe hope is the best foundation to build on –
Elastic, light weight, lovely, strong, enduring.
Remember to lay aside resentment and fear.
In each of us goodness awaits the touch of love.
Come to the meeting with an open heart,
And you will be met with an open heart.
