An excerpt from the title poem, ARISE!

"The time has come for the blind, deaf, and dumb
to see, listen and be wise, Arise with open eyes to a new sun with ears that hear the sound of wisdom
as talking drums play the rhythm of the soul,
Raise up from the dumps and the slums
that dress royalty down like street bums,
Arise from the dust of disgust
and the wailing waters of discontent
that divide nationalities on race......

With ARISE!, Gregg H. Brown adds another book of poetry to his growing collection of works, including Journey of My Soul, From Slaveship to Ownership and Rhythms, Reasons and Rhymes. His writing has been described by Oscar Brown, Jr. as "...simply beautiful. I love the style, the outlook and the language. It is poetry that truly echoes the sentiment of my soul."
