THE AMERICAN ELECTION 2016

A week before the American election, I composed a poem each dedicated to Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump, bearing in mind that one of them would become the next President of America. Now that the election is over, I hereby post the two poems on my blog for the reading pleasure of readers of this blog:

Poem 1 is for Hillary

HALLELUIAH HILLARY CLINTON

Trampling Trump to Capitol Hill

Twinkling Clinton climbed the Hill

Hillary’s little heels made history

First American Female President

After over 200 years of democracy

Almighty America’s story of the century

Moving from First Lady to First Supremo

Halleluiah Hail Hillary!

To grasp the majestic zenith of America

Is distinct from guzzling vodka in Russia

It’s only a woman of a certain ancestry

Can swim shark-infested ocean with bravery

To sit on a queenly throne in oval sanctuary

Halleluiah Hail Hillary!

As billion global villagers’ eyeballs glued

To million digital television screens globally

 Viewing verbal bullets spewing out of red trunk

Striking shatterproof delicate blue butterfly wings

It’s only a lion-hearted woman can stick to her vision

And with wisdom navigate a wrecking titanic to triumph  

Halleluiah Hail Hillary!

At long last, partisan skirmishes ‘re over and all over

Trumpestuous America must relax for the world to relax

Hillarious America must initiate a healing process en paix

As apprehensive global villagers take deep breaths with love

Freshly historic President Hillary Clinton of America

Captain a global vessel, sail a fresh America with maternal love!

A Poem supposed to be dedicated to Hillary Clinton, if she had won the election.

Poem 2 for Donald

TRIUMPHANT TRUMP OF AMERICA

Blow the trumpets for Trump

For, Donald Trump has triumphed

By trampling upon Hillary Clinton

To plug the presidency of America

Wonders indeed will never cease to be

As the discerning citizens of Britain  

Shocked the world to extract Britain

From the belly of European Union

So judicious voters of America

Have elected triumphant Trump

To supervise over their destiny

Their rights must be cherished

Other citizens of the world

Also reserve the rights

To discard their indigo cards

America still will be America

When it coughs the world ‘ll…

Triumphant President Trump

As you sit on the hot royal stool

In the white shrine of America

Tamper justice with temper

As President of America

Hearken your master within 

And be father for all as pledged!

A Poem dedicated to Donald Trump 45^th President-elect of America

NB: It seems to me that after over 200 years of democracy,  the people of America are not yet ready for a woman President, so they did not elect Hillary Clinton as President.
