I See a Nation


I see a nation in my mind

Where everyone can freedom find,

Where thoughts may freely be opined,

Where folks I meet are color-blind, 

And no one has to be defined

By stereotypes that are unkind.

And children won’t be left behind

Because their family’s not refined.

Down such a path our lives could wind

Until our spirits are aligned

To share a union newly mined.

I see that nation in my mind.
