"MLK Day"

On This Day for the Reverend King
A Leader Dedicated to Letting Others Sing
So A New World Could Begin

With Oprah as the Richest Woman
And Obama as our Modern-Day King
When the Voyage of a White Man from PBS
Presented the DNA which We Could Plainly See
That the Black Man was His 'Brother'
As He is to You and Me

A Name of Affection and Love
To Show Kinship and Hope
That We Can Now See
That Day Has Come
And Shows That We Have Overcome...
