DM Babbit Poet Free verse

I Can Dream

I can dream,  can't I?
Everything old is new again,
all that was is now on rewind and repeat.
Look at history -
 we are immigrants, 
 sojourners from our homeland,
it's a struggle and a strain
 fighting for freedom's voice once again.
A land where everyone is equally the same
 looking for a place to be free.
wasn't that America?.

Robert Lindley January 17, 2022 at 2:26 PM It was once. Changes and attitudes born from reeducation policies seems to have altered that once proud dream. Yet it is ever longing in the human soul. Fav'ing your poem as it is a gem. And yes they cannot as of yet, stop one from dreaming. God bless.
