History In Motion Poem by Mitzie Holstein

Crowds a moving
People a grooving
Multitudes mixing
Bodies fixing
Colors, black, red, blue and white
Juxtaposed!
Creating one terrific sight

People of all different hues
Cheeks cold and turning blue
With feet walking steadfastly
Forward into history
Oh, how I marvel at this mystery

Blending with the surroundings
In an ocean's swell of pride
Longing for peace and love to abide

Bodies in motion
With the energy of a potion
Just moving along
without any commotion

Streaming!
Faces gleaming
Simply flowing
Just going and going
Inaugural Park
Moving in-between light and dark

Faces going places
The intermingling of all races
Jamming into crowded spaces
As they sing Obama's praises

Not red states, or blue states
Neither white nor black
Just simply people
Moving to one destination

With history as our teacher,
America!
Once again,
Leader of the pack
