Taproot Theme
Reach back
Through the ages.
Prophets and sages
And our fathers and our
Mothers stoked the flame.
Dig down
Through the rubble.
Finding foundations
On which our fathers and our
Mothers built a world.
Explore
Ancient pathways
Crossing continents
And oceans to
The Home of Liberty.
Rise up
And rebuild now
On the foundations.
Clear the paths so others
Can find their way Home.
