Freedom Not Free Poem by Yiyan Han

Freedom Not Free

Rating: 4.5


Freedom isn't free
It can't be granted by plea
Those unfortunate people in a rogue regime
Must all fight for it
And stand firm in the face of tyranny
Not to knee

Freedom isn't free
It can't be maintained by decree
Those fortunate people in a democratic society
Must all stand for justice, law and order
And preserve the universal values
That aren't carefree

Freedom is not always a state when one is free of bondage, but it is a state when he is assured of justice and other universal laws! Well said!

A powerful poem. In the annals of history, people fought for freedom and its continued enjoyment. We must therefore maintain and preserve freedom as the foundation of life. A well conveyed poem.

We all and that means everyone of us tall or small, rich or poor, powerful or weak, have to be Born Again Environmentalists if you want to save yourselves for the planet is fine and always will be. It is mankind that is threatened as nature takes care of its self. Look to all the nations fallen and your eyes will be opened.
