[bodytext] =>  A Memorable Day in History Historic moment for Democracy And sacrifices paid off hundred fold, They voted for great Lady Liberty- Democracy, though fledgling, does take hold. At risk they came, endangered to explode, But spurned the mortar rounds with bravery, And came in multitudes to cast their vote. To vote for freedom and sweet liberty. The ink-stained thumb or finger proudly held high up, -tells of success and victory, And manifests to the entire world. They overcame defying tyranny. A memorable day in history! First time appearance in the middle east, But overcoming dread, the torch of liberty Burnt out the shells of henchmen terrorists. Defeatist senators, let them be awed, And take their utterances back in shame, Iraqis with the help of heroes fought, And henceforth never more will be the same. Athletes of spirit,- brawny, sinewy, A Random Thing that moves the pole - surprise? Athletes muscular chant "Liberty!",- The fountain spring that moves the boundaries. Observe oh world the stunning exercise Of freedom building. slowly by degrees, So worthy of brave heroes' sacrifice That brought the terror kingpins to their knees. Iraqis leap high with exuberance, And show their ink-stained thumb along the road As they advance with pride and confidence The fledgling steps to freedom planned by God. This is Election day, - Election night! America and Iraq take ye pride! And thank the heroes on the starry plain, Praise God they live! - and did not die in vain.! © Elizabewth Dandy [comments] => 3 [counter] => 219 [topic] => 4 [informant] => Elizabeth_Dandy [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 15 [ratings] => 3 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => news )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
