HThe Broncos’ Voice February 1994 NEW HORIZONS - A BLACK HISTORY POEM By Dr. Lonnell E. Johnson This month we turn back the pages of time To obscure sections in history’s scrapbook. With fervor v^e seek to correct the crime Of omission of black heroes. We look For ministers, martyrs, masters of rhyme. Familiar names of those who first took Part in the legacy that seeks to bring Black people to lift every voice and sing. Yet our eyes should not focus on the past Too long. We need to look ahead and see That heroic memories cannot last. Images: we need women who stand fast, Men who live to unveil the mystery. Heroes must live beyond this month. Somehow Our lives must tell that history is now. We who know our true heritage are the ones To set our vision toward new horizons SECOND ENCOUNTER/LOVE YOUR LOVE By Gyendor By Gyendor So long I’ve been away, So far apart our love. We touch... I can see, but not touch; I can feel, but not the realness of your love, like dawn-fresh dew gone with the heat of mournings sun. And it is enough. CRYING By Gyendor All about just being for real; about showing yourself what you really feel. So in control (so you think); turning me off-on-off-on-off like a switch... blade cutting on both sides; like shade hiding sunny lies that died In the shade... All about dealing when all else is gone and all about just holding on... to reality. Hey, cry,... and just let cry be. I fear the shadow of your love.
