Presidential Honeymoon Poem by Hebert Logerie
Presidential Honeymoon
(The First 100 Days)
While the honeymoon
Is still going on,
And in the late afternoon,
The whole world is looking at
Every detail like an inquisitive moon,
Like an aggressive and ferocious big cat,
All need to be patient, all need to understand,
All must cooperate, all must comprehend
That you have a very difficult job;
At times, you’ll have to make tough and ranching decisions,
You will undoubtedly be mobbed
By a vociferous press and you’ll be watched by many nations
Seeking for solutions that they cannot provide to their own people.
At a glance, the air changes from clear to blue and from blue to purple.
Your responsibilities are enormous,
And every one is looking for quick and easy solutions.
The universe knows that you are bright, generous,
Dedicated, and you are capable of solving hieroglyphic equations,
However, unforeseen events can occur at the wrong time,
Where there is no quick and easy answer to inevitable crisis.
At the dawn of this crossroad, we need to pray for you all the time,
We need to faithfully believe in your genius.
Belligerent dictators are going to start war,
Devious militants are going to format terroristic acts,
So forth and so on, you must always be at par,
To deal effectively with countless inconceivable mishaps.
Oh! May God bless you and hoping that even the doubters we’d trust you,
Understand your natural common sense, and admire your courage,
“Cause the challenge is daunting and every page
Will be turned with the utmost care. Loving you
Is not going to be enough, the road ahead is treacherous,
The task is overwhelming; we hope that you’ll remain magnanimous,
While the honeymoon
Is going on
And even after the sun
Burns the angels of the afternoon.

So much thought has gone into this great piece. The job seems almost impossible, and we in other countries as Australia look to some (what will have to be long term) solution. Thank you for this poem Herbert.. 10 Karin Anderson

Many think once a post is won the fight is over, but, you've beautifully captured and potrayed the responsibilities and travails attached to it. The latter part of the poem also reminded me of the famous American Declaration, 'In God We Trust'. We trust along with you Sir, that the President will be gaurded, guided and led by God!
After the honeymoon I'm sure he will marry his job, such a great man for the helm of the U S of A.and with your words you are all on a winner, good luck great poem regards
It is a great poem with declarative sentences.By using rhetorical adjectives as epithets like: 'late afternoon', 'inquisitive moon', '.vociferous press'and.comparisons like: .'inquisitive moon, like an aggressive and ferocious big cat'the author puts in evidence the character.There are used visual and mixed metaphor like; 'the air changes from clear to blue and from blue to purple.'., 'solving hieroglyphic equations', 'the sun burns the angels of the afternoon' in order to bring the necessary contrast. There are used antithesis like: 'Understand your natural common sense, and admire your courage', auxesis like: 'Belligerent dictators are going to start war, Devious militants are going to format terroristic acts, ' in order to complete the presidential image. The poet is a meticulous painter who wants a perfect player.(painting) .A great poem for my little 10++
Very inspiarational and effective words sir....these words can make a nation go forward...

A very astute observation that others as of yet have not come full circle to realize. Some would rather point and assimilate to the idea that this new President is the Antichrist, or some other mad rantings. A great write and God bless everyone, even those in office-MJG.
