A Poem for the Tea Parties

I CAN FEEL MY COUNTRY DYING

By Carolyn Hart

I can feel my country dying. Can you not feel it too? Can you feel the pain and terror As the tyrant comes to view?

I can feel my country dying. I feel it every day. As Lady Liberty stumbles And freedom slowly loses its way.

Can you feel the dark age coming As it creeps across the land? Can you feel the bright light dying As civilization is damned?

Thank God there are those who see it clear Who know the time is nigh When they must rise above their fear And reclaim what will not die.

The patriots have seen the death throes And have come together as one To take responsibility And to do what must be done.

Patrick Henry would be proud of these patriots. And so would Thomas Paine. And a Paul Revere should volunteer To gallop his ride again.

The Demonrats are showing their true colors and the Tea Party movement is necessary to keep dissent alive and shine a light on those who are in control. Now is an important time to rise up in protest against their malicious intent.

We stand at the “Hot Gates” like those 300 brave souls did so many years ago to defend liberty.

The tide from within is striking fear in the hearts of many.

Make your peace with God, pray we are in his will.

When I took typing in high school I remember this:

“Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of their country.”

God bless America and stand with us at the Hot Gate.

Defend freedom and liberty.

Those who don’t work should not feed off the stolen labor of others.

Now that the tea parties are over, where do we go from here? Communicating with our congress critters doesn't seem to work.
