TRIBUTE TO ROSA PARK GOD I AM FREE




THE SPIRIT OF FREEDOM

I Once
Stood Proud
On The Steps
Of Freedom.

While
The Flag
Was Being Raised

I Heard
The Anthem
Being Played

As I Stood
Upon The Steps

I
Hoped
All Country's

Would
Be Free

The Goal I Want,
Is not For Me

All Who Long
To Be Free

The Banner
I Hold
Is Earth's Own Soul

For
We Are One
Who Breathe Free

Let
The World
Breathe With Me

Then
We Can
All Breathe Free.

Dedicated To Freedom

All Who Seek,
The Golden Wings

To Soar
Through Heaven,
Upon The Wind.

Let
No Shackles
Be Imposed

Then
My Bonds
Will Be
Not Broken

I
Can Set
Freedom High

Where
It Will Take
To The Sky

Heaven!
Is Open
For The Ride

I
Can Fly
Free And High

Bound
By Heaven's
Openness

Feeling
Free
For
My Spirit's High

Soaring
Upwards
Through The Stars

Bound
By Heaven's
Open Sky.

A Poeatreeman

It Is Not
The Steps
To Bronze

Or The Steps
To Silver

Not
Even Gold

It Is The Steps
To The Soul

That Cries
For Freedom

Let
My Spirit
Not Be Chained

I Will Fly
Upon The Clouds

Free
As God
Would Have Me Now.

IT'S FREEDOM


It Speaks to all of Us,
Not just me.

It's not the words I Hear
It's the ones, not Spoken.

I write one line,
What have I said?
Freedom is to be Spoken.

What Line has Changed,
That Frees my Hand ?
The Words I Wrote,
Before I Died.

I am Free to Think,
and Love my God.

I am Here to See it
Not Fall Away
My Country
Speaks to me.

Freedom is in The Air
And so is Change
To Shackle me.

Be Careful
Not to Make it so
It Takes one Loss
When Freedom Goes.

Your Will to Choose
and Let it Go.

A Poeatreeman

If my Heart is Free
My Spirit Flies.

No will to Hold me
To The Sky.

Heaven Stands
Not in my Way.

I am Free to go
Where I may.

Dedicated to My Country

THE LIGHT OF LIBERTY
MUST NEVER GO OUT
FOR FREEDOM WILL NOT BE

  1. GOD HAS SET ME FREE

    I Could not
    Stand in Front

    I Could not
    Sit where
    I Wanted

    I Had To Go
    To The Back
    and Weep

    I was Held
    Down by
    Indifference

    Pushed
    back by Race

    I Could
    not move
    to The Front

    For
    I was
    Blocked
    by Hatred

    God
    moved me
    Ahead

    Gave
    me a Seat

    I Rode
    in His Chariot

    Did
    not Weep

    I was
    Happy to see

    His
    Golden Seat

    I am here
    for Eternity

    With
    Love as
    my Guide

    I am Free!

    For
    God is
    at my Side.

    A Tribute
    To Rosa Parks

    A Poeatreeman

    Man may
    have me
    Ride the Bus

    Yet
    Life will Tell me
    where and when

    God
    will show me
    where
    I must go

    He drives
    The Bus
    would not
    you know

    He
    drove
    To Heaven

    I was
    in the
    Front Seat

    He
    Placed me
    There
    For it was
    His Seat.
