I Dreamed

I dreamt

                                       I dreamt a dream
                                       Of a world
                                       Where love is supreme
                                       Grief, pain and despair banished
                                       Joy of love embraced by all
                                       With no one cursed for race or creed.

                                       I dreamed a dream
                                       Where the strong protect the weak
                                       Wildlife walk without fear of extinction
                                       And the brotherhood of man
                                       Tended the planet to survive and flourish
                                       Giving children a future of happiness.

                                                               Colin Ian Jeffery

Hello Colin Jeffery, To bad this dream is not real. It would be nice to live in a world like this. Enjoy your day my friend.
