Speaking
a common theme,
inequality,
for justice,
a
single voice, together,
people
united
for
change
for
our planet
Speaking
on message
for
a day at least, together,
remembering
the earth
upon
which we dwell
sharing
a vision, a hope,
for
a better tomorrow
Speaking
up now, together,
before
we lose even more
acting
and writing
so
no one forgets
we
need all of us
everyone’s
commitment
for
our planet, for all of us
