Dream of Peace~~coretta Scott King
We could have run
And tried to hide.

But I promised Martin
I'd stand by his side.

The fear of death, hatred and pain.
He could oppress by peaceful change.

We could have tried
To run and hide.

But either way
He would have died.

So I gave   to you  my dream.
And carried on in peaceful means.

Now I join my love so true.
And leave this Dream Of Peace to you.......

Morehouse grad who reached the heights.
Activist for civil rights.
Rhetor, rebel, reverend.
Toiled to segregation end.
In nonviolence believed.
Nobel Prize for Peace received.


Lincoln's words inspired his theme
Uttered in "I have a dream."
Thousands march to Selma led.
Husband who Coretta wed.
Evils tried to remedy.
Rests with brothers Kennedy.


Killed by bigotry and hate.
Inner spirit celebrate.
Name today immortalized.
Greatness that too early died....
