Last summer

Everybody is wearing flip-flops. Summer of free meals and popcorn. Meetings of angry Americans debating health care. Nobody will go hungry. The gangs of mentals learned how to use cell-phones and pick the locks. We didn't raise them this way. We raised them to be gentle. What will it take to put everything right? Flocks of volunteers cook meals and wash the dishes. The churches give away free food. Last summer, summer of plenty. Copyright (c) 8/2009 Marie Neumann Pottsville, PA
