I look up at the sun
Rising up everyday
In spite of long nights
Cold winters, dark and grey.
Our lovely sun
Spreading light and warmth
To everyone East, West,
South, and North
Without discrimination.
I looked up at the sun
And all I saw was brightness
Clear, and true. I had a revelation.
I looked down and around
Right and left..far and wide…
Shocked at what I saw:
Poverty, wars, killing…madness.
Injustice & inequality filled the land
Few had a lot, filled with gluttony
Greed and pride. whips in their hand
Chains of all kinds.
I saw some white, some yellow
Some brown and some black.
I closed my eyes and wished
That I was color blind.
I looked back up at the sun
And was filled with inspiration.
I had a dream, I knew that
A lot has to be done.
Unity, togetherness, and determination.
That soon fairness, Equality,
And Justice will rule the nation.
