The Sun Shines On Our Land

I have the ability to see,
The sun glistening off the water,
For no veil blinds me,
I have the opportunity to speak,
About the issues that matter,
I have the lungs needed to breathe,
With a gas mask to filter,
The noxious air that clouds minds and yellows teeth,
I will walk this yellow brick road without fear or falter,
For this path has been illuminated for us to follow and keep.
