we will remember that there is something happening in America




Not much really seems more important today
no writing or pretty little things
can match the day
so I won't try
I only cry and smile
at ever single soul I encounter

You know - I haven't really said anything about the election on my own blog - but just commented on all of the other wonderful posts that I've been reading. And it's truly because I've never felt that I could do anything justice. From stating views and concerns to the elation of that moment of decision - I really just didn't have the words. I'm enjoying everyone else's though. And filled the empty space on my screen with something that I wrote on Monday about my childhood. So I'm getting my fill of words and images from all of the wonderful sites that I visit. That has been very satisfing.

Great post and I share your sentiment. Monday I was overcome with anticipation and posted my thoughts. I have had trouble following that post up with anything else. 'Pretty little things' seem to pale in comparison.
Suffice it to say, I am inpsired!
