Oral Presentation

A poem on abolishment of slavery

Name of poem: Freedom

The roses have wilted

The violins are dead

Chains all around me

Round and round in my head

Sometimes I wonder if I am still bound

But in reality, it is all real

Allowing me too open my eyes

Then finally I am set free
