''black But Brave'' In Honour Of Martin Luther King! by ortopazz(m): 11:37am On Jan 25, 2013
I have a dream,.,.'and yes
he did.
His actions could never
be sordid.
He saw and fought,
the futures freedom, he
bought,
with sweat and blood,
from him and colleagues
like a flood,
as he sought for
happiness for his
children,
and even his childrens
children,
so I try to immortalize
him with my pen,
as I wet my page with a priviledged ink.
Never did he ever shrink, Even till death his
courage didn't blink.
He made 'now'
possible, free from
discrimination,
so I will cling my glass to his honour in
celebration.
For he saw a future,
he started a process to
make it sure,
His death brought tears,
but his life time drove
our fears.
He would forever live on
in our hearts,
a man with a lions heart.
'..that one day..'i can bet
its today.
