Marian's voice
opened hearts when minds were closed.
Marian's voice
went beyond the stars and the moon.
Marian's voice
is so loud,
it broke down the walls of Injustice.
Marian's voice
was beautiful,
and captured thousands outside her own world.
Marian's voice
overcame the color of her skin,
broke the bonds of prejudice.
and will be heard by many, for years to come.
Marian's voice inspired,
inspired a nation to change,
and became her weapon.
Marian's voice
moved crowds to a thoughtful silence,
and broke through the barrier of racism.
Marian's voice
is smooth like twilight,
made the whole world take notice,
moved men and countries alike.
Marian's voice LIVES ON!

I loved this idea. I'd be tempted to use it on my high school students, if I still had them :)
