Waving Flags wipe the tears
(Waving flags filled the space of the national mall.)
January 20, presidential inauguration day, United States 2021
All gather at the National Cathedral to pray.
The outgoing president leaves not mentioning the pain
of his desperate need to have daddy say, “Well done.”
Kamala Harris is sworn in – Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomeyer officiating.
Jennifer Lopez sings This Land was Made for You and Me and America.
Chief Justice John Roberts administers the oath to President Biden
The new president calls for unity.
Lady Gaga sings The National Anthem
Garth Brooks sings Amazing Grace
No matter that many think his energy is best used for hate.
Amanda Gorman -young, black, proud, strong, female - delivers her inaugural poem acknowledging “A nation that isn’t broken but simply unfinished.”
All greet the Obamas
Kamala Harris escorts the Pence’s
Presidents Biden, Bush, Clinton, Obama and Vice President Harris lay a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier
A show of unity and reverence
Tears cleanse.
Tears receive redemption.
Tears carry the sails of hope.
Tears carry our strength.
Amazing Grace
How sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me.
Amazing Grace
Waving flags wipe the tears.
