Edge of Darkness
Harsh rhetoric harms
Angry political camps—
Nation tears apart

Stepping Forward
Division falls back
Country must always come first—
Democracy breathes

Time for Compromise
Conflict’s stormy waves
Navigating nation’s course—
Finding common ground

so true…excellent pairing of image with words

Thank you Michael. I don’t often write much about this type of theme, but such thoughts are never too far away.

Good imagery and almost an impossible dream these days. I compare our nation’s political parties to two toddlers screaming to get their way with mom (the people) in the middle too frustrated to handle it any more.
