We didn’t live in the time of Lincoln or Washington, but we are blessed to live in the time of Trump.

Beautifully said, mairdie! In fact your entire comment is music to my eyes and ears.
Hugs! Wish I could recite as well as I can still write. I had previously hired an actor to record 5th great grandfather’s poetry and a poem of my father’s. Decided I would try recording myself reciting father’s and mother’s poetry and my own. Much cheaper. What a disaster! Not only have I turned 80, so has my voice. So many past years of choir gone and lost. Now all the words, it seems, must stay in my head and exist only on silent pages.
