Statue of Liberty

The poem beside the statue of liberty has different meanings, to different people, to me this poem represents or means that she isn't there to fight she is only a strong powerful woman with her torch. She is there to guide you and she is there if you feel like you have to be free. She will give you liberty."Keep ancient lands, your storied pomp!" She cried with silent lips.

To me the the symbol means that she is like a guide trying to give you light, or show you the light to a new way of seeing things.

Many people that don't have papers are always running from immigration. Didn't who ever made the statue of liberty think of those people? maybe they see the statue and they ask themselves, "shouldn't' we all have liberty like any other person"? Maybe they should make it count for everyone.

Statue of liberty Poem

"Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame,
With conquering limbs astride from land to land;
Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall stand
A mighty woman with a torch, whose flame
Is the imprisoned lightning, and her name
Mother of Exiles. From her beacon-hand
Glows world-wide welcome; her mild eyes command
The air-bridged harbor that twin cities frame.
"Keep, ancient lands, your storied pomp!" cries she
With silent lips. "Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!"
(Lazarus,Emma,1883)."

Fear

`

Im sorry!!! I won't do it again. You're in a room trying to hide from the person you thought you loved. You have been yelled at, punched, but he still says he loves you. You have been sent to the hospital from the hurtful bruises he gives you. See what he's done!!! Now you're in a dark room hiding in a chimmney trying to hide from the guy you say loves you. You say he's had a bad day, he has to much work, he comes tired, but is it true? Or does he just choose to abuse you for no reason? You wish you were a baby again wrapped around your mom's safe and warm arms, there, where no one could touch you or hurt you, you which you were that two year old that if you were to fall or scratch your little arm, your mom would come running and make sure you were safe. Im sorry!!! I won't do it again.
