My Dream! Poem by Natalie Ramos

MY DREAM!
WRITTEN BY NRSJR 2: 41AM - 2: 55AM 1-14-16


I HAVE A DREAM THAT ONE DAY WE WILL ONCE AGAIN BE A HAPPY NATION,

THAT ALL HATRED, PAIN, SADNESS, MALICE AND INJUSTICE WILL BE NO MORE,

WHERE PEOPLE OF ALL COLORS AND CREED CAN COME TOGETHER IN UNITY,

A PLACE WHERE THE STREETS WILL NOT BE PAINTED WITH THE BLOODSHED OF OUR YOUNG ONES,

WHERE GUNS WILL BE REPLACED WITH SHAKE HANDS AND HUGS,

A COUNTRY WHERE PEOPLE OF AUTHORITY WILL BE RESPECTED BY THERE RANKS,

I DREAM THAT WE WILL ALL EXPRESS OURSELVES WITH KIND WORDS AND DEEDS,

WHERE POVERTY AND SICKNESS WILL BE OF THE PAST,

A PLACE WHERE WE CAN ALL WAKE UP WITH SMILES INSTEAD OF TEARS,

WHERE WE NO LONGER FEAR FOR OUR LIVES AND WE

BELIEVE IN THE GOVERNMENT TO MAKE THINGS RIGHT,

I DREAM OF THE UNTHINKABLE AND PRAY IT WILL COME TO TRUE,

SO NOW I'VE TOLD YOU MY DREAM WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO,

TO TURN YOUR DREAMS INTO A REALITY AND WATCH IT MANIFEST INTO SOMETHING NEW.
