Poem
By:Sikolwethu Mthethwa 

In readiness for my journey to the land of dreams,
I bring my pillow closer to the full moon
And wrap myself around the blanket of stars that litter the night sky
While the Serene breeze airily sings me a lullaby

One deep breath to purge myself of day's stresses, 
My eyelids take their final bow 
And stay true to their vow: to be the blanket that keeps my eyes warm
And protect them from 
Any disturbance as I slumber 

Now I am resting 
If I were a bird, on the surface of the moon I would be nesting 
My body leisurely drifts into the stillness of night 
As if a clover falling to the ground. 
Night holds me in a soothing embrace
Asleep and at peace, but my mind begins to race 
It creates a world within a world. 
A world in which my desires prove to be true 
A world in which there's candid affection between me and you 
I would say the sky is the limit, but there is no sky here 
Only possibilities that know no bounds. 
A world in which we're kind to Earth our mother, 
Each other 
And obidient to God our father. 

Not all is peaches and cream
Wars loom and disease is still prevelant
But the absence of pursuit of power and  greed 
Render these predicaments far from permanent 
Woman and man can gather 
With their minds sharp and hearts light as a feather 
They strategize 
Instead of fantisize; on ways to put Earth's problems to rest
One at a time. 
In this world my mind has created 
The brilliance of our species is elevated
Our resilience is revealed and our being celebrated 
Our moves and  progression are carefully calibrated 

The loss of life at the hands of each other is minimized 
The slow death of our mother totally ceased 
The number of those in God's favor greatly increased 

It is in my wishes to bring this world to the one we all live in
Maybe to the force of Love for each other we'd finally give in
And the real progression of our species would finally begin
