Chance of a Lifetime

Our eyes are full of fire since we now know that the clock will strike at midnight We will begin to chant when the hour strikes Then we will laugh once more Later, we'll taste dawn When it cuts through the darkness arrays itself in brillant colors Lights up the world!

Ooooh la la you are full of life and love! This is splendid! Yes, I did hear the poet - she was wonderful! If you get a chance to watch a replay it is worth it. Also the older black man who spoke after her, I did not hear his title, possibly a religious figure (I'm so bad) but he was great also, as to me when he spoke it was like poetry! Have a great night Matthew! Love, Shar
