Standing With And For Liberty

If you stand strongly with and for Liberty I will fearlessly join you If you stand firmly for Freedom I will cheer the noble gestures of your kingdom If you stand enthusiastically for Equality I will ecstatically stand with you too If you stand for good democracy I will help you spread the seeds of Love I will happily clap when the doves are hovering above If you stand solidly for fair and equal justice I will help you ring the bells of peace I will fervently pray for you all the time I will sporadically listen to the tintinnabulation of the chime Brothers and sisters, I have tears of hope in my eyes today Otherwise My pen is able and ready amidst the fray And it won't be so wise Because I love my fellow human beings, our people Who are black, red, white, yellow and purple. P.S. This poem is dedicated to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., and to our brothers and sisters. Copyright © January 2025, Hébert Logerie, All rights reserved.
