Finally, <br />An agreement between those made, <br />Who have argued for decades... <br />Over that which they have regarded as important, <br />Has taken a temporary recess. <br /> <br />'God answers all prayers. <br />So... <br />What between them has been decided? ' <br /> <br />They've all agreed to leave the revolving door, <br />As is. <br />With volunteers to provide the daily maintenance. <br />And to replace the color of it, <br />Every twenty years. <br />To give the younger generations a sense of change, <br />And progress to believe in. <br /> <br />'But... <br />The door. <br />It 'still' remains a revolving door.' <br /> <br />Perhaps. <br />But many have yet to notice it for what it is. <br />And changing its color once every twenty years, <br />Will unify those with renewed commitment. <br /> <br />'But... <br />It 'still' remains a revolving door.' <br /> <br />You know this. <br />I know this. <br />However... <br />They? <br />With their standards to value? <br />Are not that conscious.<br /><br />Lawrence S.
