Freedom of Speech

Wind whistled in the trees, dropping pinecones on the ground
The blue shade of the mountains, merged with the sound
The cool breeze touched my face, waking me for the day
Opening up doors of freedom for all I want to say
Freedom of speech, is something we must keep!
We are lost without it, from all that we reap
Stand strong with everything that you have to say
What happens tomorrow also comes from today!

Yes and must fight for it more than ever now. They are developing the ministry to censor even more! Thank you :)
