I had a dream...
Edited on Tue Sep-12-06 09:17 PM by Tom Yossarian Joad
Of a country
where I lived
and people cared
about others
and our government
was by, of and for
the people.

and our elected leaders
served
the people
that elected them
and not the money.


I had a dream
of a country
in which
a person could see
a doctor
if they wished.
Even when poor.

I had a dream
of a country
where no child
went hungry.

I had a dream
of a country
without
Kings and Queens
who wanted what other
countries have.

I had a dream
of a country
where differences
were celebrated
and not condemned.

I had a dream
of a country
where those
with more
helped
those
with less.

I had a dream
of a country


that died.
