| Ode To Abraham Lincoln and Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. by Leslie LaVerne Bridges-Kemp �2002 His yoke is easy and his burden is light. Reverencing the dawn we whisper in delight to the darkie demons despoiling grace in the night of slavery�s reign overcome in the dawn of might. Overwhelmingly appreciative of the dispensation of grace which has delivered me on chariots of emerald embrace into a Renaissance of memosa-orange to replace the midnight hues of ebony denigration in innocence�s face. Civil War and Civil Rights Movement transform and transport your charge to the crest of a tidal wave of deifying momentum, as daintily the angels signal in silence the Captain�s report of longitude serenity and latitude eternity sailing towards ad infinitum. |
