This series of poems (written in the German-inspired style of Elfchen or Elevenie) joins in a theme of “For the People.” This phrase was used by American President Abraham Lincoln near the end of his famous Gettysburg Address (follow the link to read the entire speech).
Very well written Richard! 🙂😺

powerful words, Richard…
Lincoln uttered those words over 150 years ago, and it seems like we still have the same problems we had back then.
