Let Them Come

"Give me your tired, your poor,

Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,

The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.”

I give them opportunities both taken and spurned

Dreams both fulfilled and deferred

Choice of the full spectrum of life

Hope, an identity, a voice, or better yet a verse in humanities poem

Dignity to feed the indomitable human spirit

To be, to act, to exert their will

Let them come
