Those who have fought

We remember
in the midst of our celebration
gathered as a people
though spread across our land
Remembering those
those who spoke out
words of freedom
those who fought
to make those truths real
those who have died for us
the cost of our freedom
The vision to speak this dream
and the courage to keep it alive
