"Money"

Money is precious money is power Money is a devil cunning and evil Source of war destruction of nations Money causes hatred money unites Money is lovely it attracts like a magnet Cupboard love is given for money Money is a master, it instructs we surrender Money has rules we follow blindly Cheating and stealing are done for money Money gives power money gives respect Money can earn you a stay in a coffin Root of evil, source of happiness Money is wonderful, money is Eden Money is a murderer it kills like a cobra Rejoice with money, cry for money Money is a stinging bee, money is delicious Money is sweet as sweet as honey Once you lick it you’ll die for money. Money is war, money is peace Money’s path is deception, cheating and enmity People kill and get killed for money. Money is attractive, money glitters Money does make one act like a dummy Petrified can’t move, like Egyptian mummy. Money and power are closely related Money is power, power is money Too much money may mean power and misery. -Saudatu Kabir

America: Doing Big Things Since 1776

This is a poem by Timmy Cap in which he talks about America's love for bigger and better things.

"We Do Big Things," says the man on top.

What does he mean?

"The idea of America endures.

Our destiny remains our choice."

I may not like him, but he can talk.

I think Obama gave us a new Slogan for the dollar.

"America: We Do Big Things!"

Just think about all the things the USA has done.

We do it big!

A revolution that planted the seeds of revolution throughout Europe in the 1800s.

The creation of a new type of government, twice.

The first truly industrialized war.

The perfection of thousands of inventions.

Saving the British and French in two wars.

Creating the ultimate weapon to end all weapons.

An unseen prosperity after a huge war.  

Plus much more.

In America we do it, and we do it big!

Everything is big in America,

look at Texas and Alaska.

Look at our portions,

look at our yards and farms,

interstate system,

sports arenas, cities,

automobiles, standard of living,

population, and economy.

America: We Do Big Things.

Everything about us is big,

it's in our blood.

So instead of saying God Bless America

or In God We Trust, lets try something else:

"America: Doing big things since 1776!"

We do need re-branded, new US for the new year.

lets start the "Do Big Things America!" campaign.

and make America what it once was,

the big kid on the block.

"America: We Do Big Things!"
