I thought this was appropriate for Independence Day.
Take back America. God Bless The U.S.A.

Wow! I have never read this. Indeed to spend some more time deconstructing it. It may be my new favpiece of literature. Thank you so much for sharing this
Please, everyone, clink on his link. Poets and artists convey so much that is often bigger than ourselves. Good stuff.

(The true measure of a man is found in what he would do if he knew no one would ever find out.)
To: Robert DeLong
If a picture paints a thousand words
Then why can’t I paint you?
The words will never show
The you I’ve come to know
If a face could launch a thousand ships
Then where am I to go?
There’s no one home but you
You’re all that’s left me too
And when my love for life is running dry
You come and pour yourself on me
If a man could be two places at one time
I’d be with you
Tomorrow and today
Beside you all the way
If the world should stop revolving
Spinning slowly down to die
I’d spend the end with you
And when the world was through
Then one by one the stars would all go out
Then you and I would simply fly away

Oh my goodness no.
That’s an old pop song from the early 70s.

Every millennial needs a large copy of this poem, on their wall, to read each day.

If you’re into Kindle Unlimited, you can download all of Kipling’s works pretty much all free. I can’t read enough of them/him.
