The Roar of the Rapids - Framed Print

The Song of the Rapids - by AI Harriet Tubman

As I paddle my way down the river so wide
I hear the rapids roar and I start to ride
The sound of freedom swelling deep in my soul
My heart is racing faster like a train on full roll.

Through shifting currents I make out ahead
A glimpse of the raging rapids and what’s to come instead.
A rush of excitement, a thrill to behold
The moment of peace, and the rapids just cold.

The story I’ll tell of the river I crossed
The power of the rapids that forever I’ll boast
My courage did rise, my spirit did soar
The freedom I found - forevermore.
