Freedom To Write

I will write these words and then I will rest I thank GOD that we have freedom of the press If we had not that one given intangible right We'd have no books to read, and no words to write Man would be restrained by whom controlled the word And the thoughts and ideas of others, would also be deferred The blood of our fathers would have been shed in vain And no one would know, as no one would write their name So these words I type with both vigor and pride I type and I say what I want, and from no man will I hide So with my pen or pencil or a typewriter keys in sight I will put down upon my pad what I think, and I will write.
