Mountains To Melt

The following was inspired by a post I read from the Huffington Post. I’m happy when people are given the chance to speak freely but all of a sudden, I do not like free speech. Too many people are saying things that they don’t truly believe. I think when the forefathers tried to encourage this freedom, they were thinking of truthful men.

 

Mountains Of Ice To Melt

 

Millions in the banks sitting and “the least among us”

On streets or in decrepit homes and politicians fail to discuss

Universal health care which might ensure many of these

Never suffer with treatable ailments or succumb to disease

The Lion in the Senate worked hard that we may

Alleviate poverty from this country one day

Initiated Acts to give all people equal Rights

Nightmares turned into American Dreams was one of his fights

Senator Ted Kennedy spent the best of 47 years

Organizing to give voice to the voiceless and quell their tears

For decades he wrote and had passed over 300 bills

Interacted with both sides of the aisle and shared his skills

Called us to tap into our Angels within

Eradicate the selfishness and hush sin

There are still mountains of ice to melt, people to awake  

Our society has too much cold-heartedness or façades fake  

Many praise the Lion now that he is gone

Even all his work but will they let it live on

Last on his agenda was the Universal Health Care

The least among us are suffering, lets hope they have a prayer
