" Remember Toussaint "
BY: Jean Weslor Cadeau





































Remember Toussaint for the great hero in which he was,
Remember Toussaint victorious in battleground,
Remember
Toussaint not as a life lost, but as a legacy profound,
Remember Toussaint, Along with Patriots like Dassalines, Petion and Christophe:
Who all had the courage to say enough!!


Enough, and broke the shackles and chains of bondage,
All they left behind was pure hellish damage
Delivering us from those who, felt like vicious animals,
We were meant to be kept in a cage.
How did they do it you ask? I don't know but someway…
Somehow… my people managed, And they brought forth the dawn of a brand new age.

Don't forget their courage,
Remember their bravery,
Remember all the blood spilled for you and me,
Remember that cold night in 1803,
When they took our leader, did it have to be?
When took all his hopes and dreams and shattered them completely.
But the dream isn't dead,
Haiti's dream burn in you it burns in me
So, I ask you, I ask you sincerely:
Please, Oh please,
" Remember
Toussaint Louverture."
