The King

- Birth Non-violent protest, Southern winds blind with hatred... Through tears, truth is seen. - Passion A man dreams of peace, Righteous in his convictions... Empowered by speech. - Death Lorraine whispers death, Purple Iris in full bloom... The promised land calls. - Dream Passions ignited, By presidential decree... A dream remembered. .....Fall, Winter, Spring, Summer
