November 8, 2022 #Vote

The angst we feel is real,

Morning brought little comfort,

Today we decide so much.

Take your place in line at the polls,

Let your voices be heard.

A moment in time, speak your choice,

Even God won’t be able to protect us,

If we fall to evil’s fate.

Step up my fellow Americans, vote out the absurd,

Scream and shout Americans, before you won’t be heard!

Maybe he was wrong, but felt impending doom, but knew he needed to pull it together.  He’d get it together for his customers, for the children that came in with their parents and for the parents. They were probably equally as frightened as he was. This day would be hard he thought, maybe even the next few days.  Rounding the corner to the store, he spied Mrs Wills and her little girl Emily. There must be something wrong he thought. He hurried to open the door and get them out of the cold. This was his purpose he thought, caring for my community. Nothing else mattered in that moment, but little Emily and her worried looking mother. “What can I do for you my friends?” Jacob smiled and set  about his day…  LmS 11/8/22 #AnytownAmerica
