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

GOD HAS SET ME FREE
ReplyDeleteI 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.
