History’s Pen
In shadows cast by history's pen,
A tale of strength begins again.
From fields of struggle, rises the song,
Black voices echoing, bold and strong.
Harriet's courage, a guiding light,
Through freedom's tunnels, a fearless flight.
In Rosa's stance, a seat reclaimed,
A bus, a symbol, injustice named.
Malcolm's words, a fire that roars,
By any means, equality soars.
Maya's verses, like wings unfurled,
Rise above, a poetic world.
From Martin's dream, a beacon gleams,
Unity embraced, shattered dreams.
Tuskegee skies, where pilots soared,
Breaking barriers, dreams restored.
Through history's maze, resilience shines
