Simple Hopes

Let us take a ride
down the road to fantasy
the hero's journey.

Up together
from the sea. 

There are some things
we cannot say
while our masters remain.

We are trained
for doubt
and digging
prying necessities. 

But let us have our simple hopes
one being he's alive.

And soon will rise
again to be
our hope
our country's pride. 

There was a time
before the birth
of many here today.

When a child
saluted Dad
as they took
him away. 

Mythology
the hero's path
from death
unto new life

would spark
the boomers
very much
and help us
on our journey.

Besides convincing me
that God
can make
a damn good story. 

And love is with us
all the time
dressed sometimes
in true glory.
