  • NOBLE POETRY  

  • FREEDOM RIDERS BUSWARD HO

    Civil Rights, Civil Rights and Civil Rights

    Freedom with a fight

    Fed up with plight

    It was walk and talk

    A battle that had to be fought

    The message got out

    All that happened moving about

    Greyhound took the message across the nation

    It became the Freedom Riders presentation

    Opposition tried to stop

    Name calling in mock

    Freedom stands for all

    It was no time to stall

    Greyhound’s rolling wheels focused enroute

    The company supported what the Freedom Riders were trying to do

    It was a mission the Freedom Riders had to pursue

    Civil Rights being a follow through

    Freedom Riders knew they couldn’t tire

    The struggle couldn’t be an expire

    The multitude of voices in shout

    The Freedom Riders stood hard on principles

    They were the anecdote with a cure

    Freedom simply needed to be secure

    Multitude strong with pride

    It was togetherness in the Freedom Riders stride

    Civil Rights is still an issue today

    The world must take a stand all the way

    There can’t be a command with a demand
    Justice is for throughout the land

    Thank You Freedom Riders for the path

    This is not the last

    Greyhound thanks for the Civil Rights destination

    As for the Freedom Riders, you are the face of the nation.
