The Land of the Free

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!

    What an inspiration. I’m afraid I’ve taken Lady Liberty for granted most of my life. No more! Thank you, Ellen, for showing her in her full majesty.
