- I Have a Dream -

There will come a time where the weapons must be put down Death and wounds have created scar for eternity No future, no happiness ..... crying Heaven is missing sun, moon and stars Grey and dusty landscape ..... ruins Trembling with fear and pain Blood and dead bodies Wild horses have stopped running ..... nowhere to run I have a dream ..... let the earth be free * * The title is in memory of : Martin Luther King (1929 - 1968 ) * The poem is for the victims in Syria 30.08.2013 A-L Andresen :) Copyright © All Rights Reserved

May I thank you for directing me here. I do find it incredible that we can't live in peace. There are unfortunately some people who think its OK to own/control everything. They are little bullies with guns who have never grown up. Anyway, thank-you for your comment and let me say it is a pleasure to read your work. The laws of nature are the great equalizer as you point out in your own way.

I search for words, Within my speechless world. I search for color, Within a greyscale girl. The essence is of heaven, But the apprentice of hell. Our future lies victim, An' our children be as well. But in half of just a moment, Taken by the choice of virtue and of sin. I could teach you the secret, How all present and future battles you can win. Because the future isn't written, And in just a Mississippi it all begins. So sieze it for the changing, And change it for the kids. :-) 1.4.U
