Dreaming Into the Day

Starvation and lust, betrayal of trust,
That nobody swindles is my cherished dream.

Advocacy of war, nations in conflict,
That the world makes peace is my fantasy.

Illiteracy and ignorance, dearth of judgement,
That all be civilised and enlightened is my illusion.

Deprived of rights, entrenched in aversion ,
That all be valued and honoured is my reverie, a vision.

My imagination, a deep aspiration,
Am I dreaming into the day !!!
