Dreams and Hope
In a world so often crazy,
And fraught with so much strife,
My dream is that we learn respect,
And value human life.
I hope we teach our children,
To cherish this great earth,
We can show them by example,
Almost from their birth.
I dream of having peaceful days,
Without a single war,
When countries learn diplomacy,
And to negotiate much more.
My hopes are for a cancer cure,
For there to be enough to eat,
Of streets that have no violence,
Of relationships without deceit.
I dream that all can worship freely,
No matter what they believe,
And that every single child,
Is given the ability to achieve.
I pray that in my lifetime,
My hopes and dreams come true.
I will try to help them all along,
In everything I do.
