Freedom And Liberty: The Price We Pay! Poem by Joseph Spence Sr

The price we pay for our freedom is not contained in a man's wallet,
Nor is liberty a currency found in a female fancy Gucci pocketbook.


It's not in anyone's liquidity portfolio investment bank records,
Nor is it contained in anybody's 'Wall Street' premier trust fund accounts.


Reverently, the price we pay is not derived from ensuing wealth.
The red blood of freedom travels naturally in our veins—immutable!


Freedom has been ordained from creation in the lives of all people.
Liberty runs from heart to heart, inspires from soul to soul—sours like an eagle!


It's linking parents to children, brother to sister, displaying courage.
Generations standing on the shoulders of generations—a fighting refuge!


The price we pay for our freedom and liberty—will never be free!
Historical accounts tried; produced no detailed cost—'It's a sacred decree! '


The price paid has clearly left budgets—fragmented and unbalanced,
Red poppies blooming in the fields of courageous remembrance!


It has triggered aching souls, caused running nostrils, and weeping eyes.
Ladies wearing dark veils, and men black suits—great spirits that never die!


Uplifting hand and heads under the moon and sparkling stars at night.
Courage inspiring life in delight to continue the fight without—fright nor flight! .


Many look forward to more significant liberating inspiration to come.
Brilliantly embracing the shining new embolden golden rays of the rising sun.

Such a priceless premium runs in our veins and precious arteries.
The price paid for liberty and freedom is entrenched in our hearts naturally!


Have an awesome day, don't forget to pray, stay encouraged, inspired, ingenious, resilient, mindful, enlightened, and blessed always!

Happy July 4th to America's 244th Independence Day Celebration. 'Still Leading The Way.' Always Count Your Blessings!
