But, When We Stand Together " We Are Liberty "

All the lovely colours
In this human race
Different faces
With different shapes
 
In towns and cities
Rich or poor
We all came to life
Through the same door
 
If we can't live togther
Some thing is wrong
Do the colours divide
Why we can't, sing the same song
 
So, you just be you
And i'll just be me 
But, when we stand together
We are liberty
 
 
" Inspired by Christina Larmons poem "
                  Bad to be black

Misty Hoot Date: 7/7/2009 1:30:00 PM Love it! I think this should be a poem hung in schools everywhere so people from a young age can learn that we're all the same and you can't have prejudice but call yourself an educated person. With prejudice comes ignorance and you depicted that very well. :) Login to Reply
