“Sad will be the day when the American people forget their traditions and their history, and so longer remember that the country they love, the institutions they cherish, and the freedom they hope to preserve, were born from the throes of armed resistance to tyranny, and nursed in the rugged arms of fearless men.” – Roger Sherman
On the further consideration of how diatoms not the Amazonian rainforest so much act as the lungs of this beautiful world of ours. For some of us who have to consider more than others the role of oxygen in our lives. I have spent 2 days so far in a downturn thanks, I think in part to two days not one spent at the Regional Office this week. I cannot be certain but I truly believe there is something god awful in the vents. If you’re the praying kind and reading this, I can use all the prayers and good thoughts out there.
Life Anew by Michael Romani It's all so stunning The blues and the greens Sends my guitar strumming It's the stuff of life and dreams There in a light show of swirls A fantastic chase of endless whirls Are the things that keep us alive Barely noticed when we take a dive But seen from the distance Cascading past our resistance It's overwhelming in charm Coming on a good sort of four alarm And all of this is to give us breath To chase away the demons of death Silently, intimately revealing Mind numbing, defying and stilling The sights that play on and out Remove all but grace, leaving no doubt All of the living waters of this planet blue Breath their secrets to us of life anew (c) July 7, 2019 Michael Romani All Rights Reserved

In this day and age, so many tear at the foundations of America. They do so with an almost willful ignorance of what came before and what’s happened since. There is an insistence that perfection be from the beginning when that’s almost never or actually never has been the case of the human condition.
American Dream by Michael Romani Confused looks on our children's faces A mild dystopia view of all America embraces Disgruntled player unhappy with someone's shoes When perhaps he above all might know all the hues All that America is derived from humbled beginnings God given victory for all mankind was their winning Critics from today judge another time and place Seeming to prefer to tear down our country's human face Yes, there have been misstarts and many a stumble But that's when Americans shouldered rather than crumbled You speak to me of reparations without understanding That slavery is found throughout the world and not demanding Confrontation of the wrongs going on globally today And demanding that we pay for the wrongs of others anyway My family gave on the fields of Gettysburg and in Revolution So that freedom might have it's man made evolution The poorest in America can make their way to the very top Mostly, it's a matter of will that best makes some stop And while there is a lot of things to still be made right America shines as the City on the Hill in freedom's light Sacred ideals enshrined in every moment we breathe Advocating each person's right to think, conceive and believe My own family grew from crop duster selling roadside fruit And grew on to come a pillar and giving all they could contribute So, don't speak to me of past wrongs without offering contribution Doing so makes you a part of the problem and not the solution Past wrongs certainly are not and can never be even close to right But we are best to leave behind darkness if want to live in light (c) July 4, 2019 Michael Romani All Rights Reserved
