Every state in the Union needs a poem like that for themselves. Heck, America needs a poem like that to rally around. We don't have real "heroes" today. Kids have no idea who John Wayne was or that good guys wear the white hats. Their role models glorify drugs, have tattoos and piercings and if they are female with 3 kids those kids have 3 different fathers and she wasn't married to any of them. And if you ask a kid what was the last book he read all you get back is that thousand mile stare. "Book?" Yes Archie, if your guy is sending you poems like that, you have done well indeed.

You are so right Dennis. It seems that morality, hard work, self reliance, and good work ethic are out the window now. My bad! I left out family values. I think that is critically important. Now it is almost gone. It is sad for our country. I have to admit that I am blessed for my kids. As much work as it took...it was worth every second.
