I have a dream

I dream of a world
filled with peace and harmony
where humans and creation really live as one
where the sun of justice shines
on all the children of the Creator Father and Mother Earth.

I dream of a world
where there are no exploiters and exploited,
no slaves and masters,
no very rich and very poor,
no oppressors and oppressed.

I dream of a world
where governments are on the side of the poor, those without land,
the homeless and the unemployed;
those in society who are
not considered to be children of God and Mother Earth.

I dream of a world
where chemicals, herbicides, fungicides, pesticides
and other deathly substances
disappear from the earth forever.

I dream of a world
where the richness of forests,
the fresh air, fields and rivers
can, with humanity, live life to the full and praise God the creator.

I dream of a world
where the reign of God
would also be a reign of justice and peace
and love for the whole of creation.

If we all dream
The dream will become a reality...
