Last night I heard America singing

A thousand voices all in a unison of sound

Speaking in tongues that ranged the universe

Yet all were singing one theme song.

And as they sang, there came upon the stage

Dancers as diverse as America’s stock.

From across the world, they had come

All reaching for that one great prize

A freedom to speak, to act, or to dance

As each sought a way to express

Their fondest dreams and highest hopes.

As I watched, a kaleidoscope unfolded

Of voices gloriously singing the songs

That spring from the soul of Americans

Shhh! Don’t talk, just listen to that

Unfolding saga as dedicated humans

Attempt to say that this is my America.
