Eric Washington Washington Poems
I treat people with respect,
Went to college as was planned;
For I was always brought up
To be a strong black man.
...
Every year in November people gather food and timber, to celebrate a family day, a thanksgiving holiday. Eating dressing, cakes and pies; laughing with wide stretched eyes. Everyone is having fun; Except the Turkey, who must be done.
...
Far away in the misty lands,
There lived a man admired.
He got away from city life,
It was his soul desire.
...
I KNOW MY PEOPLE.
I've seen their suffering and their tears,
Their anger and their fears.
I've seen them work amongst the mills,
...
What is a rose but a rose?
What is life but life?
All that seemed or told,
Is sometimes not precise.
...
The Best Poem Of Eric Washington Washington
A Strong Black Man
I treat people with respect,
Went to college as was planned;
For I was always brought up
To be a strong black man.
You may lie or you may jail me,
Try to shoot me where I stand;
But I will always rise up
As a strong black man.
You may deny me my promotion
Or try to chop away my hand;
But I will always stand up
As a strong black man.
In wartime while others flee,
I will fight hand to hand.
For I will always stand up,
As a strong black man.
On the tombstone as it reads
(Bravery)
With the words as it stand,
That "He had always stood up
As a strong black man."
