We Will Rise

We have sunken to an all time low,
And the enemy has dealt us a deadly blow.
Our heads are bowed as we mourn in silence,
But we will rise again as they face the consequence.
The answers that we seek lie within us all,
And though broken in a million pieces we must stand tall.
We are outnumbered and are no longer united as one,
But we will rise again to be champions of this great nation.
We have been oppressed and suppressed as we speak the truth,
They have robbed us  of our dignity and confused our youth .
Like a shameful dog we have turned away with a heavy sigh,
But we will rise again as a stronger nation with our heads held high.
The indomitable fighting spirit of our ancestors run through our vein,
We are a nation of great fortitude  and  we can endure unbearable pain.
We may be  far outnumbered and the odds against us may be great,
But we will rise again as failure will never be our fate.
We must unite to  make a change in our society,
We must realize here and now that greatness is our destiny.
If we change our mindset and vow to accept nothing less than the best ,
We will rise again and achieve far more than all the rest.
Let us do more than dream of a better tomorrow for our nation,
Let us find that strength from deep within to change our situation.
Alone we can do so little but together we can do the impossible now,
Let us rise together with renewed hope  as  each citizen makes a vow.
It will not be by mere chance that we will rise and achieve all that we can,
We  must work together to rid crime and violence from our land .
If we fail to see how the actions of one will impact us all,
Then we will never rise but continue to fall.
Let us now with a strong resolve far and wide,
Stand tall with helds held high with pride.
That no matter what comes our way  we will with one voice say,
I will rise, you will rise, we will rise as today is a new day.

Saluting Our Heroes

Jamaica is our island’s name,
A land blessed with so much fame.
And for the part that our heroes  did play,
We pause to reflect and salute them today.
Nanny  of the Maroons was a heroine ,true and brave ,
And fought with all her might not to be a slave.
Marcus Mosiah Garvey made us proud of our Black race,
And everywhere he went there was pride on his face.
 Paul Bogle of Stony Gut fought for justice for all,
And the powers that  be had no choice but to listen to his call.
Norman  Washington Manley defended workers’ rights with passion,
And fought with all his might to change  every unjust working condition.
Sir Alexander Bustamante was a stalwart for  workers everywhere,
And  was the voice of the voiceless and spoke without fear.
George William Gordon  stood tall to help the poor with their plight,
And he never backed down or turned away until things were made right.
Sam Sharpe listened and he heard what the planters  said, 
But he stood tall and bravely said, “No more slavery,I’d rather be dead.”
We have been blessed with a great legacy and we are  a proud nation,
And our unsung heroes and heroines continue to rise to the occasion.
We must unite against the common foe and guard against complacency,
We must be resilient like our heroes and safeguard our rich legacy.
A legacy of greatness , hard work and resilience in every community,
A legacy of talent, ambition, skills and self-worth in every nook and cranny.
No retreat! no surrender! we will continue to blaze a trail,
 And as the blood of our ancestors  runs  through our veins, we will prevail!
Not by sight but by great might, we will continue the fight,
As we vow to conquer the common foe and make things right.
And just like our heroes did , we  will stand tall with pride and decency,
As we salute our heroes and safeguard our rich, bountiful legacy.

"We, The People, We Are ONE"

We, The People, We Are ONE,
We have a mission that MUST be done.
We must UNITE, in LOVE embrace,
To keep us strong enough to face
Our opponents, the wolves as sheep,
Who strive to herd 'us' and to keep
Us trapped in fear should we rebel,
Show resistance against the hell
They are designing, have underway,
So they may reap and we must pay;
Meet their demands, supply their need,
Of lust for power, insatiable greed.

While among us, poverty abounds,
Starving children, hear the sounds.
People made sick with illness, disease,
They toy with lives as they please.
They claim to be leaders, us protect,
Honour and praise they do expect,
While they steal from us, rob us blind,
Feed us lies, poison our mind.
They have no conscience, no remorse,
For what they do and so, endorse.

We, The People, MUST take a stand,
UNITE as ONE, NOT disband.
We must prioritise what's at stake,
Let not our differences, divide us make.
For when we permit this dividing wedge,
We hand our opponents the cutting edge.
This is not a task for one or two,
ALL of us must follow through,
When those with courage face the wrath,
The rest of us should join their path,
For a single flame or two or three,
May be extinguished most easily.
But a wall of fire can relentless be,
And force surrender of the enemy.

We, The People, We Are ONE,
We have a mission that MUST be done.

UNITE to conquer, starve not feed,
The tyranny levied, driven by greed.
We, The People, MUST decide...
To conquer them 
-or- 
BE conquered by divide!

Remember...
"Love UNITES; hate DIVIDES."

Pikes Peak Cranky Critter Confab

Up in Colorado, in the forests of Pikes Peak
A cranky critters conference was held just this week
It was led by a mouse, 3 legs, whiskerless & without tail
"Against a common foe!" He said "We must Unite! We must prevail!"

He hobbled out to the edge of the woods & pointed toward a house
In that house, I once lived a good life, a young & healthy mouse
Then one day the rancher's wife decided she'd had enough
I will say she is a worthy adversary, Mercy she was tough!

He looked around at all the critters, weasel, skunk & squirrel
& said "I hate to admit it but I was bested by a girl!"
Its true, I escaped alive but she got her trophies, too
For I left my tail, paws & whiskers stuck there in her glue 

The squirrel spoke up in a streetwise Brando voice
I'll accept the challenge! For this mission, I am the best choice!
I know this lady well, having enjoyed seeds & nuts out on her deck
I am not afraid of her & will show her we deserve respect

So the squirrel plotted & waited until the time was right
He saw his chance & took it while in the birds she took delight
He scampered up a pine tree & scurried out on to a branch
While she was distracted with a phone call & a pretty bird, he seized his chance

He took a flying leap, landing square on her blond head
Taking great delight in her squeals of surprise & dread
He then let loose with a torrent of the defecation sort
"That's for all the dead & walking wounded!" was his parting retort
 
The moral of this story, for one there must be
Is be mindful of avenging squirrels when you sit beneath a tree

Turning Point

The trauma teams were ready, but no one arrived for care.
Uneasy feelings of anticipation lingered there.
A city all in darkness in the middle of the day.
And fire fighters beepers—calling help to find it`s way.

The citizens were helpless as they wandered aimlessly.
We sat glued to our newscast, not sure what we wished to see.
And then the word the Pentagon had also been attacked;
Just knew right then our life had changed, we`re never going back.

A missle full of loved ones had just crashed into a field,
Oh, God, what other tragedies will nine eleven yield?
The cell phones carried messages; and prayers and I love yous.
Last words of strength from families that had so much to lose.

Manhattan`s double buildings that once punctured through the sky—
Were now a pile of ashes to its people passing by.
A nation stunned and terrified began to understand
That we had let our guard down in this unsuspecting land.

Yet in the months that followed, we united one and all—
Determined we would never see another building fall.
But now the months have turned to years, the memories not so bright.
We must not let another “axis” member hit our sights.

So let`s inform our leaders, let them know how much we care.
And that we`ll teach our grandchildren to prize the land we share.
Our country has been blessed with peace, one nation under God.
We must unite to keep it ours, to walk on freedom`s sod.

A New Hope? (Not Star Wars)

Cleaner air

No more despair

Fighting stopped

Doves they do flock

Together we rock

United Nations mock

We live as one

God has no more song

New year start

Forget terrors heart

 

If you think this will happen

Think again you dreaming marder

As long as the earth spins

Evil has to embark her

This is not a Care Bear® story

We dont live in the clouds with clowns

Finding the lost unicorn is not our biggest worry

Stop smoking and come back down

Until the day comes where we must unite

To save the world from Klingons and fight

We will always argue over who came first

Science, religion, Jehovahs witness, or mothers giving birth

Thats just the way nature is, beautiful but full of hate

You dont see the Lion and the Buck high fiving

As they sip tea on the porch and talk about the hippos weight

They must survive and kill just like the humans trait

So tell John Lennon he made a great song about Let it Be

But also tell him hes more likely to see the DoDo on Discovery

Not that I dont agree.....

I would love to see the world in unity

Unfortunatly......

Earth has man, and man is what is killing me

Until man dies there will never be hope of loyalty

To my mother earth........

A Winter's Plea - Collaboration With White Wolf

The cold winter has arrived
and the pack leader must be strong
he gathers the tribe to discuss preservation
as he does every time winter comes

With their ally, Raven, cawing nearby
The trees shiver from heavy snow
A scented breeze captures their nostrils
With the hunt now ready to commence

"Now listen up my pack
we must unite to survive
as the food supply is scarce
we must work together to last the cold"

The alpha aware, only one in ten hunts succeed
He lets out a haunting howl
then one by one the others join in
it was as if they were trying to outdo one another

"We will not let the elements defeat us
we will all thrive and overcome
for there is hope yet
follow me and you will see"

"While our primal instincts take control
we are bound together on this earth
howl at the moon for we know of her power
she guides us through our nightly prowls"

Now simultaneously the pack cheers with confidence
There now filled with the fire of life burning inside them
Into the night they dart off in search for their survival
Forever these wild-hearted shall roam freely the land

Premium Member Deep Thoughts

Far beyond the center of my thoughts,, like an untouchable realm I can see
Pieces and facts merging like salt water and sand at the sea
Turbulent waves keep rolling, before the sand at shore is wet and dries
My heart breaks for so many, watching as the mind slowly dies
It's easy to say that all will be fine, enhanced by days of prayer
But the truth is people are suffering, many not speaking , they don't dare
Deep inside the people, what is happening is known to be wrong
Just like in timing sound in the playing of an off-tune song
Although I write of seeds from atrocity, in words that are sad
We must have courage to stay strong , to overcome what is bad
So much has become twisted and now things are upside-down
To level all this out, we must unite so that we do not drown
An ocean filled with wisdom, that is created together 
To face the biting storms in different types of weather
So swim with courage and strength, reach hands to another
              -   The barren desert is nothing but the other  -

Chains of Poverty

In the corners of our world
Lies a pain that we can't ignore
A cry for help, a call for aid
From those who hunger, cold and poor

Their voices muted, by the noise
Of our own lives, so full of joys
But if we pause, and truly see
Their plight, we'll know what we must be

For poverty, it's not a curse
But a problem we must all reverse
With every step, and every act
We can help bridge this cruel fact

We can give hope, we can give love
We can lift their eyes, to the skies above
For in our hands, lies the power
To change their fate, in this very hour

So let us rise, with hearts of gold
And break the chains, of poverty's hold
For in their smiles, we'll find our own
And build a world, that's truly home

A world where none are left behind
And every soul, can truly find
The love, the peace, the joy they need
To flourish, and to truly be freed

So let us stand, with hands held high
And wipe the tears, from every eye
For in this fight, we must unite
And end poverty, with all our might.

Only If Lady Liberty Came To Life

She has stood gacefully in the harbor for years.
She witnesses the peoples happiness, defeats, and tears.

This lady definately has a lot on her mind, she definately has a lot to say.
The very momnt they end this war, will be a great day.

We must unite as one, together we all stand.
She encourages you to join her, it's easy, just take her hand.

Only lonely cold nights she had conversation with the man in the moon.
His face full of worry, and he wished our soldiers would come home soon.

She will continue to hold that torch, this being our guiding light..
She will stand for equality, and for all that is right.

She may be a statue, but she has watched over this country for an eternity, or so  
it would seem.
She stands proud to represent the people of the United States, and the American 
Dream.
