  14. Poetry “As God as my witness,I’ll follow the StarO’er the Underground RailroadThough I know it’s farTo Canada’s shores.But I’ll then be freeWith manumission papersIssued to me. Many hands have guidedThese weary feetFrom station to stationMay I repeat –The conductors that guided meHave been led by GodBy a faithThat is free.” On the Underground Railroad On and on in the dead of nightThe weary slave seeksFreedom through flight.His clothes are tattered,His feet are bare;They bleed from frostbite.Does no one care? He follows the StarWith a hope that shinesAs dark, through the night,The trail he finds.“The Underground Railroad”-He’s heard its nameThis railroad to freedomIs not in vain. The Voice of the Slave In here, quick, so they don’t see The escape we’re trying to make. We’ll get shipped off to Canada By the large Ontario Lake. We’ve got to be quiet and careful We’ve found our chance to be free. Our lives right now are worthless, And that isn’t how they should be. After crawling through this tunnel That was made for us who slaved. We’ll count our blessings every day: Praise God! Praise God! We’re saved -Frances C. Taylor from her book, The Trackless Trail Leads On
