Donations are essential to keep Write Out Loud going    

Let them be....

Let them be....

 

Let people be as they are

Let dogs bark as a warning

Let cats purr with satisfation

Let frogs croak by their pond

Let us be who we are

Let us be what we want to be

Let actors be on stage

Let the angry demonstrate

Let communists seek for equality

Let gays be happy and in love

Let gypsies roam where they will

Let the believers pray for us all

Let children play and be happy

Let the elderly reflect on life

Let the bereaved weep in sadness

Let us all protect our planet

Let the Tibetans be buddhists

Let Jews go their synagogues

Let muslims go to their mosques

Let the Irish speak gaelic

Let the poet write from his heart

Let women be equally respected

Let kangaroos hop along

Let parrots mimic our tongue

Let people travel and learn

Let philosophers teach us

Let the homeless fill us with compassion

You will find that

There is room for us all

MC's comment is particularly important

Let us be free to disagree
Let us be brave enough to say so,

Well said Keith, Freedom to be yourself seems in short supply sometimes. Good poem reminding us to Dare Greatly!

I think you need to take charge of our country before it sinks,
Plenty of constructive advice in this verse for Boris methinks.
Hopefully he will read this and widen his views,
Before becoming a dictator and dominating the news.
