Freedom
It’s not about profits
It’s not about taking
It is about justice
And giving and making.
It’s about who we are
Our present and past
It’s the deeds that we value
The things that can last.
It starts deep within us
It comes from our souls
It’s the stuff that defines us
Our dreams and our goals.
It’s our best link to heaven
When all’s said and done.
It’s the good that’s within us
It’s our sky and our sun.
It’s more than our words
And more than our thoughts
And more than our hopes
And more than our oughts.
It’s ourselves looking back
When we look in the mirror
It’s our history our honor
It’s the things we hold dear.
When we stand all alone
In the silence of night
And hear a voice calling
Or see a faint light.
It’s that moment of truth
When the shroud is pulled back
When the angels are crying
And we’re under attack.
It’s our inner voice saying
It’s the right thing to do
It’s humanity praying
For me and for you.
When all doubt has been lifted
Though our actions are flawed
We know we are free
In the presence of God.

I can only imagine these poetic words comes from a soul who has lived life fully, experiencing what life brings in its path and then taking a step back and using the gift to observe. and express. Thank you!
An award well deserved.
