Once upon a time a princess, wearing a fish tail black dress with a heart shaped bodice, bent down to dance with a little boy who had just arrived through the pearly gates! Diana,The Princess of Whales, turned to President Reagan and said, "This one is for the Gipper!" With a sparkle in his eyes, John Travolta's little son, Jett, reached up to take Lady Di's hand! Gone were the seizures! This Was Saturday Night Live in the White House Once More! She is not a princess, John Trovilta, but I imagine with tears in my eyes that Leila, my daughter, danced and giggled with Jett too! It conforts me! Yes,in heaven dreams can come true! Reverend Martin Luther King Jr., Rosa Parks, and Sojurn Truth joined hands as "Mama Africa" Miriam Zenzile Makeba sang,"At Last." Then a jazz band played while Lewey Armstrong sang, "What a Wonderful World" to Madelyn and Stanley Dunham who embraced their daughter Ann as it was January19,2009 and her son paused in the corridor alone as he trembled inside realizing the destiny of a nation would be entrusted into his care. He took a deap breath and looked up to the heavens from whence cometh his strength-"God grant me windom", he prayed! Moments later a nation weaping with joy watched as President Barack Obama became the forty forth President of the United States. "Way to go dad!" Came a smile and a high five from a little Amrican beauty, Sasha Obama, clothed in a peachy pink coat trimmed with an orange sash, an orange scarf, her feet shod with orange shoes and frilly orange socks. First Lady Michelle Obama gave her husband a kiss that will be observed in color as long as the earth remains, wearing a brocade silk and wool woven lime green coat over a beaded neckline and a midrift sashed silk ribbon dress; still clinging tightly to the President Lincoly"s and President Obama's inaugural Bible with her olive green gloves with pumps she stepped into historical imortality for as long as our nation remains she STANDS! Like the glow of mother of pearl and the smooth waves on Galveston's Bay, our First Lady Michelle Obama"s dress glistened with the glow of a "thousand points of light" as the cameras across the Lincoln Memorial captured a moment in time and eternity! Gracefully capturing her legacy with a smile, Malia posed for the press in her royal blue wool coat trimmed in a matching silk ribbon tied at the bodice and a black scarf to match her shoes. With the glow of glory, in front of a castle with walls of multi coloured transulecent precious stones,in Fort Heaven, The Queen Of Hearts' black dress glided ever so gracefully over the streets of gold as she twirled Jett around while the bagpipes played Jett sang a tribute to his Daddy,and Lady Di sang to her babies, Prince William and Prince Harry, heirs to the throne of England. "Greece is a feeling, you can't stop believing now We can be who you are!".They were laughing for joy as the light from the throne of God bathe them in everlasting rightousness! President Reagan looked at John John as he saluted his dad, President John F. Kennedy who reached to join hands with First Lady Jackie Kennedy. She was wearing her pink Dallas dress that she wore to President LBJ's inauguration after her husband went through the pearly gate while she held his body on her pink dress and the pink pill box hat. Mother Theresa whispered,"It is not the act,but the amount of love that is put into doing it!" In the glow of glory Jackie's pink dress was no longer filled with shattered brains. Standing next to them were Lady Bird Johnson wearing a red dress with a basket of fresh picked blue bonnets with white tips and red indian paint brushes with yellow fluer de leau stamens like on the helmets of the NFL New Orleans Saints' foot ball players with their Katrina survivors' resolve championship spirit, a tribute to old glory and the six flags of Texas (Texas was French and one gold flag had Fluer De Leau like on your helmets) which she placed gently on The River of Life. President LBJ was wearing his cowboy hat and his tan Texas Longhorn leather with rusty brown cow hair tipped cowboy boots as he reached down to gather up his bride. In his deep commanding Texan drawl, he asked Ernest Tubb to sing "The Yellow Rose of Texas" followed by "The San Antonio Rose", "Galviston" and "Houston". President LBJ cowboyed up and danced past the white tail teer nursing in the field while the twelve point deer miandered through a flock of wild turkey dancing as LBJ danced the Texas Two Step withLady Bird Johnson. They were joined by history's chosen who paved the way for Civil Rights in the Land of Milk and Honey, the Melting Pot, America the Beautiful! The United States military band, the three thousand fallen heroes from the Twin Towers, the Pentagon and that Pennsilvania's field on 9-11 including the New York City fire fighters joined hands as all thirty nine United States Presidents placed their hands over their hearts as the bugles blew and Elvis Presley shock as he sang the "Star Spangled Banner". Without missing a beat, the British Royal Navy's bagpipe band played "Bonnie Prince Charlie" as Mommy blew kisses toward Buckinham Palace where she watched Prince William and Princess Harry giggling over a joke as the Big Ben clock chimed over sounds of the waves splashing on the River Thames! A red double decker lorry roared pass Saint Paul's Cathedral so a golden brown curley haired American teenager, great grand son of a Scotch Irish Crown Colonist, could Anchor near enough to see the changing of the guards. They were on their way to Paris to see the Eifel Tower, the Arch De Thriump and to semember another Texan President Eizenhower who lead ended World War II by the strength and unstoppable courage of men like a Mississippi home town dad with fourteen children on Normandy's shore on D-Day! He wanted to get home and sing gospil songs, play the harmonica to the Mississippi blues at a Georgia family reunion! Smiling ever so gracefully was The Queen Mother wearing her three string pearls to match the Pearly Gate, a light blue hat with a rose and a light blue dress, she whispered a blessing on her daughter, Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, who was sipping a cup of Earl Grey tea with Johnny Cakes wearing an orange dress with mahogony mink collar and cuffs as she thought about her trip across Europe to christen another Royal Navy ship, the H.M.S.Liverpool. The smell of the berganot in the tea, a bond, a heritage, a love, a three string pearl linage, a tradition! The 9-11 New York City's firefighters, fallen Twin Tower heroes, wearing their yellow trimmed grey suits and fire helmets gathered to repeat the 23rd Psalm and to show their respect for the strength, courage and calm resolve displayed by President George W. Bush after the hearts of We the People of the United States came in one accord trempling looking to our leader to restore a deep sense of rape of all that we hold dearly! President George W. Bush began, "Yeah though we walk through the shadow death I will fear no evil for God is with me.." Even at ground zero God is there! May The Queen Of Heart's light continue to shine in the hearts of her gifts to the world, little yellow shamrock heirs to the longest living monarchy on earth! John Wayne "The Duke" strutted up to The Queen Mother and took off his cowboy hat and bowed courtseying his hat in a swooping motion said, " * man gotta do what a man gotta do!" John Lennon played, "Imagine" as the Queen Mother in her baby blue shiffon gown with her rose hat, three.string pearls glided across the floor while Big Ben struck midnight! Cinderella's clue that the dance is over! Long live the queen! God bless America! Hail to the thirty nine chiefs who await us beyond the gate that is draped in a string of pearls and hail to our five beloved Chiefs: President Barack Obama, President George W. Bush, President William Jefferson Clinton, President George H.W. Bush, and President James Earl Carter!In the Tree of Life the American bald eagle sang, in unison as her babies squacked frustrated with two hundred and sixty six or seventy years waiting on a snow capped Denalli mountain, joined by the voice of Women around the World and a Razorback Hog on th Ozark Pigs Trail, in its MOuth was a WaSHington D.C.'s CHerry BloSsoM branch dropped by the bald eagle an anointing of precious perfume oils a tribute to the 2008 campaign while forshadowing an event that will change the world when the first woman President of the United States will be inaugurated! "OH Beautiful PeRSPaciOuS SKieS Of AMBeR WaVES Of GREen,AMeRCia, AMeRiCa GOD SHeD HiS GRaCe On YOu!" Can you find YES WE CAN in the waiting of the pigs' and eagles' quartet? Lady Liberty asked, "What time is it?" All the Native American Indians gone and striving to honor the unmarked graves scattered across a nation of the most noble sacrifices made by an indiginous people on ancient ancestrial Holy ground in the name of "Manifest Destiny", "It is my time!" Awakened by the call of histoy deep into the wombs of Women across a globe came the beakoning of Lady Liberty-Is it time yet? I can't stand this birthing pain any longer and another child breath the breath of life in the three AM wake up call! The eagletts in orphan Denalli's side cried about to be aborted by the snow and ice as the eagle squacked of fetus of unborn were torn to smithering and the mouths of the public school children taped from prayers but the gay policeman kissed his husband after their wedding cermony and the nerves on the neck of a lady tightened as the neasua in her stomach made her sing "I am a little more country than that". The Wanda Sykes sang."I'ms a be me" whil uptown West Bank Cover Girl (?) Ellen Degeneris blushgig sang, "Greece is a feeling you can start believing now that you can be who you are!" Then my two aborted babies joined hands with the billions others in heaven and sang, "The blood of Jesus shed for you will guarantee you will hold us on the other side". "Don't cry mama," Leila said,"We are happy now as we are all togeter now. We love you! See you soon!" "You start believing now you can be who you are!" Imagine the Cherry Blossom Park filled with pregnant bellies and a White House filled with "Keep It Real" drama and regular educated people! An unwed mother, a dozen children, deer heads in the East Room, fishing trophies, mini skirts, a Playgirl (Baby's Daddy) magazine hidden in a drawer in the Lincholn Bedroom in the White House, and a special needs child sitting in the Oval Office playing with an Alaskan Huskie slay dog! This is America where any thing is possible and anyting you can dream and believe can come true there is a changing wind! Dancing to the Zack Brown Band's "where love is grown on Southern ground, funny how the little things in life can mean so much" and Tim McGraw's "Southern Voice" I am just speaking with a Southern Voice! "So baby why don't we just dance" like Josh Turner! And when you get in to a situation where you are scared, broke, and far away from family and friends on a journey of your life time which can change your world, wearing your favorite Toby KeithKs hat, for a graduation ceremony, because peaceful transitions hurt and bring joy, comforted and reassured of each step of the way listening to "Lady Antebellum's "I turn to you", stoping outside of DC crying as the fire trucks escorted you on through the wee hours of the morning when you are scared and alone wearing your Toby Keith hat in support of our troops, our flag and our American traditions, wearing an American Indian jacket, cowgirl up boots, a British Razorback Republican) red coat, Tennesse blue grass denim square dancing flared mini skirt, with an Obama Biden pin on your American flag, with a Captain Sulley's spirit, Exoxon Mobile gasoline, General E.Leeah drove an"American Ride" with her three Louis Vetton suit cases from Goodwill, "Some journeys can change the world", PEACEFUL TRANSITIONS, to advocate with Senator McCain for help for illegal immigrants who are Native American's on ancestrial grounds in a have's and have's not world, ridden with schools that assign you pit bull dogs cages clean up assignments that will make you lose your mind you just look into those blue eyes you just delivered and thank God you are a mother and you didn't go through the gate with the string of pearls in the arms of a first response fire fighter who liberated a world on D-Day on Normandy"s shore thinking of his fourten babies back at home! Stay alive and live to make more babies my little southern beauty. in the fight of your life! We are behind you with all the prayers that heaven can muster up! God Bless America! We pray for our troops on the front line that they will be able to understand the history, culture, resolve of the Afghan people in an inpenetratable terrain using tanks but who after decades of stuggles under many "helpers" may become an alliance or war that will last longer than one generation of 17 years! And Senator McCain when that health care bill comes to you jump up to advocate for coverage of cosmetic surgery too as you appreciate beauty and sex appeal, We know by your pretty youthful wife and your campaign choice!That is the American Voice! We care about how our tax dollars are spent and if executives can jet around we can get a tummy tuck, a face lift or an enhancement of our choice, right? Did you ask your wife? Should I have any of those Governor Palin's "death panels" to encounter with I want to get cosmetic surgery to boost my confidence to go with my pearls and Paris Hilton and Haley Berry perfume in my old age as I don't want to wait until I get through the Pearly Gate to be pretty!
