O‘ Brief Light of Liberty

O‘ Brief Light of Liberty
Let me breathe one final breath
Of your unfoul‘d air… then be on your way.

In what ”ere land you may next endure,
Fare thee well; Good-bye; Bonjour;
God-speed; perish not; ardently I pray.

Though I watch in dismay, my nation decay;
Her children confounded; oblivious; at play.
May we embrace once again… another day?

R.H.B.-1996
