Rising Tide
Thousands of people
out in the street
Voices cry out in
the chill autumn air
They are crying out
for better government policies
which hopefully will be a healing balm
for the public's wounds
Speakers ascend the platform
their words strike chords
in the hearts of the assembled masses
You may believe what you want
but take note of the crowd's demands
They will affect
your life and the life of your loved ones
A rising tide will lift all boats!
