For Rosa

For Rosa,
Rosa Parks started a revolution,
It was as if an evolution.
They started a boycott just for her,
She was a leader and a teacher.
They marched with a zero,
Who is now a hero.
Martin Luther king jr.

I agree that you could work on the end of the poem, but I do like the transition from Rosa Parks to Martin Luther King Jr. I like the idea of connecting these to great historical figures. Rosa Parks helped to start a movement, and King Jr. lead the movement to change.
