I Talked To Barack And Michelle Last Night

I tried for this opportunity and when it came I was shocked. Just out of the blues it happened. The President of the United States Of America, Barack Obama and his first lady Michelle Obama. I didn’t remember to tell him of my book that I had given an Aide to give him earlier this year on his trip to the Caribbean. I had sent him an autographed copy of
 “Path To The White House” and had hope that he gets the chance to read it. Michelle Obama promises that Barack will call me, in person as soon as they located the copy.

 

 

I Talked To Barack And Michelle Last Night

 

It was an incredible and lucid conversation

There was little politics in our discussion

A brief mention of the importance of Health Care

Little inclusion of the Economy, Jobs and things to beware

Kudos to this great man and his audacity

Education he said is foremost in the recovery

Didn’t know he was so humorous and candid

There was no tension in our talk and he did

One thing I found difficult and I didn’t know how to answer back

Before we got into 5 minutes talk he said call me Barack

And I was stupefied for a moment, tripping on every word

Respect of the highest order is due so I didn’t believe what I heard

At the very moment I was coming to grips with it

Call came through from some one from his recent summit

Keep talking with Michelle until I return

And unbelievably there she was with interested concern

No detectable apprehension in her voice

Didn’t seem like she would have made another choice

Michelle spoke with me and we were like reunited friends

I told her about the things I think transcends

Culture and the rituals we now adopt

How some more important things we had stopped

Encouraging the young to waste and eat

Lots of the fast foods that will eventually cheat

Longevity and move the goal post closer in

Even see the rampant tendencies of adults for sin

Learning our kids immoralities

Avoiding to teach them of responsibilities

Shirking our roles and leaving it to fate

Then giving them all the modern technology to derogate

Nip bits of any residual righteousness from before

I talked my head off and could talk no more

Got a high just from the thought of the Obama’s and me

Having this level of conversation and being so friendly

Then Michelle said Barack was called away and was glad that we spoke

       I told her about my Path To The White House, then I awoke
