I HAVE A DREAM

I HAVE A DREAM™ In Martin Luther King Jr.'s binding words of oath, Saving souls solely sold out for fair esteem, Without gainsay, granulating the greatest quote, Comes these four words "I Have A Dream."4 The marvellous melody of Martin's message, Mingle minds - with magnanimous meanings, And just like an age-long and archaic adage, Mustered majestic march, melding morals.8 Memoirs of Martin's muse mimicked mystery And his mighty moment moved mountains, Miraculously merges and made history. So, in our racial disunity, a united unity reigns.¹² In the future's fair and fearless frame, Black boys, white boys, hand in hand. In unity, under sky's serene same, Dreams dance daringly to destiny's demand.¹6 Girls of gold and girls of grace, Gleaming, glowing, & growing together, Heartbeats harmonize, honour embrace, Hope's horizon, boundless, forever.²° No colour confines, no creed can chain, Tomorrow's truth, in love, we attain. “I have a dream that one day, little black boys & girls Will be holding hands with little white boys & girls.”²4 VICK MANUEL POETRY {VMP} FORM: Alliteration Copyright ©?
