here is a poem i wrote in grade 9... I was doing a nelson mandela speech thingy.... it's a terrible poem. haha.

Freedom for Nelson

Nelson Mandela
What a fine fella
Stuck up for rights
What fine sights
Spent 27 years in his small, small cell
Drip, drip, drip his salty tears fell
He didn't care
All he did was stare and stare
While all those men
More then ten
Shoved and pushed
All they could
Sighs and sighs
Won the Nobel Peace Prize

thanks for sharing. I enjoyed this quote as well "For to be free is not merely to cast of one's chains, but to live in a way that respects and inhances the freedom of others." - Nelson Mandela Much love and joy.
