Rosa Parks stepped up to the plate as a defender of justice
Illuminating, resonating, jubilating, captivating, all our siblings
Fighting for justice, knocking down injustice, and no way rustic
Seeking equality, moving triumphantly, touching hearts mightily
Bonds of unity, boundless ability, God’s destiny, smiling eloquently
Fighting bigotry, interweaving racial tapestry, showing loves majesty
Heart of gold, never growing old, a story yet to be told, not getting cold
Abounding liberty, instilling autonomy, seeking equal economy
Rosa showed fortitude of strength, hope, liberty, pride, and God’s love
She lived humbly, sat passionately, and America saluted her reverently
