It Takes Courage To Keep Our Democracy - Rhyme Royal



Risk is great in the absence of Justice
There will be chaos and we have no Peace.

The rule of law is nowhere to be found
When tyrants rule and oppression abounds.

When foundations of freedom are destroyed,
We must resist Evil in our country
It takes courage to keep our Democracy.

''It Takes Courage To Keep Our Democracy'': a great title and a great truth.. your country is experiencing an awful time of 'darkness'.. many other countries, indeed, are in the same 'darkness'.. yet, a lot of people look like they do not care.. or is it an excruciating lack of courage...?

Thank you Fabrizio Frosini for your wonderful comment. Yes it is lack of concern or apathy and it will usher in our destruction.
