A message of love,
A vision of freedom,
A hope for peace,
He gave us a dream.
He told us God made us
to be like the rainbow
blue is no better than green.
We all bleed the same blood,
cry the same tears,
dream the same dreams.
Liberty
twas the ideal to which
our great nation was born
But where is she hiding?
She lies under, squished beneath
the white man's heel.
He said to give freedom freely
and ever so peacefully
pried up the heavy boot
with a snake-charmer's grace
And how did we repay him
for opening up our eyes?
On his way out to dine
his great life got snuffed out
and left desolated and desicrated.
They thought then the dream
would die
but out of the ashes, it sprouted wings to fly. |
Submission Name: tribute
in the third stanza of the fifth line you have “desicrated” believe you may have wanted “desecrated” and another minor suggestion I would put ellipses after would die in stanza three line seven after the word “die” the last three lines are immortal
