What is Democracy? (In honor of Wah Suk)

What is Democracy? (In honor of Wah Suk) by Athena Cheung 1-25-11

Democracy is a butterfly that chooses its own flower,
Even though, the flower is far at the top of the tower,
Democracy is God’s given right of equality,
That everyone’s opinion is potential quality,
Democracy is the reason we continue on,
Even though the world will cry and mourn,
Democracy is the fight to continue our fight,
Despite our hero who has entered the light.

Wah Suk is a strong outspoken believer,
We will forever cherish the memory of our leader,
He dedicated his work and himself for this cause,
Know that he is watching and we are not at loss,
He gave us hope to believe and say ‘We Can’
To us, he is a leader, a hero and a friend.
