Peace and Justice for ALL


Silence bears down on us,

Our eyes see blood, beating…

But strong are our voices of beauty

And you cannot destroy us.

We wake with determination

And hearts beating,

We walk.

Our voices do not break

Ever more chanting our words

Of

Hope

Change

Love

And…

Peace for all,

This is Us.

-Rachel Pickarski
