THE United States of America…
Greetings and salutations from the sand, sun and surf of Cape Cod, Martha’s Vineyard and the beautiful, sunny, 72 degree, Fahrenheit, island of Nantucket! Great to be with you on this Monday morning, the 30th day of July, 2012, nine a.m. hour, eastern standard of course. You know, I don’t know why I always say that, perhaps it is because I am so happy to be living in such an amazing place such as Cotuit, an old Cape Town off the beaten track, ‘where the ocean meets the wood’, and, as one of my friends, and I am being dead serious here, from FOX NEWS stated recently in an email to me, ‘where the cool people hang out’. True. Looking up at the flag that this country’s song, our national anthem was based upon, a poem written by a young soldier who witnessed the bombs, the fight, the war itself, well, in the end, that FLAG remained. I hope you all enjoy these summer games in London, England, as I will, for it is truly a miracle that the WORLD can still come together and agree on one thing–that competition does not breed contempt, rather, it builds character, and when all is said and done, take your pick of event, WE shake hands and say, ‘well played sir!’. I wrote a poem recently, for a friend of mine, but, to me, now, everyone I meet IS a friend, even though some may ’seem’ like ‘enemies’. So here it is, LIVE from this old Indian town that haunts me to this day, and, like a river, ocean, lake or stream, will always be part of this cowboy’s heart and soul…
“LOVE”… by, Michael Mosier.
“There are ‘times’ in one’s life, when you meet the one who knows who you ARE…, You don’t need a reason, in this fast paced world, full of pain and doubt. Yet, we know what peace there may still be in silence, which, if caught, at those precious moments when we forget ‘ourselves’, be in spring, summer, fall or winter, brings US ALL back to that JOY that exists in one’s own heart, the HEART WE ALL have within us, the same heart, the same heart, the same heart…For, as we also all know, deep, deep, deep down, that the only thing that you will truly take with you, is the LOVE you made while on this earthly plane, bringing joy, and, hopefully, making someone’s life breath just a little easier. LOVE is the ONLY answer. AND, it is STRONG–stronger than any bar of steel, politician, pundit, or priest.”
Have a wonderful day and may God Bless this wonderful country, this United States of America, and good luck to all of the athletes who are making a mark that no one can take EVER take from them… PRESERVE THE WILDERNESS! Peace~M
