RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: DEMOCRACY
Virtues of Democracy
When people come together
From diverse cultures and ages
Different backgrounds and races
Varied interests and stages
They can rise to the moment
When they find common ground
They can answer the calling
You cannot keep them down
You will see them at the ballot
You will hear them on the streets
When they stand as one people
They won’t go down in defeat
The virtue of our republic is
We can alter our course
When the old mount stumbles
We can ride a new horse
When the people are united
Their power is unbounded
Like the virtue of government
That our forebearers founded
