Dream

strength of a thousand
does this one person have
to stand up
with pride in his stance
and fire in his eyes
agree or disagree
he has his say
with great courage
he speaks of tomorrow
and the day after
declaring his secret hopes
while the world looks on
with a jaundiced eyes
to watch this man and
The fire in his eyes
