The Cycle of Change

1776,

The time of independence was declared, the patriots no longer willing to stay

1861, 

The fight for rights begin, a goal, a rightful freedom is clear as day

1865,

The war is not yet over, for it has just begun

Knowlege has to be learned,

Trust has to be earned,

Patience and wisdom and love has to return

If we fail,

Hatred will burn within, 

Anger will churn throughout,

and sadness will be found under every overturned rock.

We must grow, and adapt, and change.
