Drops of Color/ That’s why
Drops of Color
That’s why
Walking across a bridge
back and forth,
then back AGAIN!
Why?
History, painted in boards,
stain after stain
after bloodied stains!
Why write about the past?
Why speak out?
Why invoke the memories?
So that they no longer repeat
themselves…that’s why!
Seems we have to cross bridges
AGAIN and again and again.
Together, let us keep crossing
the bridges until we realize
everyone is free to cross.
No matter your race.
No matter your religion.
No matter your gender.
What matters is: YOU are!
We are…One.
Cross the bridge—
help the ones who cannot
get across!
Let us carry one another.
No One is too heavy.
We are all Sisters & Brothers.
We are all welcome
to dwell in
‘A Promised Land.’
It’s time.
We cannot give up trying.
CROSS
let’s cross
until no one is left
behind.
