Civil Rights Lyrical

by talisa96

Civil Rights inspires the fight, within our soul cause we have one goal To be free and respected, not bullied and rejected To walk on the street without fear of being beat To hold our heads up high without fearing we will die Simply for expecting to be treated fair and asking that you care About the fact that we are human beings who simply want to be FREE!

This is a great upbest and inspiring poem! You show how we have made progress throughout history, to make it so that everyone feels that they are treated fairly. Nice rhyming, too! Have you ever written a haiku? Check out how and more in the "Resources" section.
