Special Man


Tears were shed Spirits were broken Blood was spilled and strong words were spoken Many died, and many cried but one man never gave up his pride His vision was strong and his dream was clear He never gave up he persevered Even through all the pain and strife he continued to fight for what was right MLK was a special man he died believing in his plan
