One Voice

One United States of America for all,
Now is the time to stand up not crawl.
Each American is now against the wall.

Victory can be ours if we stand up tall.
Our ancestors rose up and heard the call.
Independence from tyranny, what they saw,
Collective thoughts rose up and became law.
Enthralled we have become, like a play doll.

What a wonderful message in this poem. This is a scary time for this country, one in which the people have to carry "One Voice." Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us. Karen

Yes, great message. Your title being the whole point. I am sick of our country being so divided. Let us hope for needed change and soon. Well done. Love, Shar
