MLKJr. Inspired: What I Stand For

Martin Luther King Jr. is a hero in the United States’ history and is honored with a national holiday devoted to him. King, as well as many others, made his thoughts known and then later, a reality. Here is a piece inspired by him.

What I Stand For

I stand for clean water
I stand for clean food
I stand for clean living

I stand for open minds
I stand for open places
I stand for open questions

I stand for free peoples’ rights
I stand for free essential resources
I stand for free communication

I stand for rightness in effort
I stand for rightness in change
I stand for rightness in nature

I stand for finding the path
That will allow us to move
Towards something honest
