My Quilt of Hope

Fill my seams with lots of dreams Like Martin Luther King did Walk down avenues No need to be in school, at least not on this special holiday Because of that man That man there, we can do near anything Across every race Crochet together the different yawns of colors Raise them high and to the sky Now days, it seems to be pretty cool To ride in the back of the bus to school Thanks to Rosa Parks You can sit anywhere Respect education, learn your history Give that kind lady your seat- And for Abraham Lincoln the first in charge He helped out our ancestors Because of them we can remember them in a really special way And even Harriet Tubman cause she paved the way Take pleasure in this tranquil environment. But it can stay this way, if you help it stay Don't exacerbate, keep things chill Don't let the depravity of today's society Get in your way All to and for our Freedom today
