Dream

I imagine a world

of social justice:

resources used sustainably,

and shared,

wildlife and water protected,

a world of clean energy

and thriving organic gardens.

The humans are all smiling

and no human or animal

is abused or beaten or shot,

a world where guns do not exist.

The children are all loved,

and the elderly are 

not lonely, but included,

for they are the storytellers.

It is a world of peace and beauty

and, the thing is,

it is available right now,

if humanity wants it.

for Elizabeth Crawford's Creativity Challenge: Imagination: to envision the world the way we would like it to be. Dark and light forces are battling right now. My best hope is that light will emerge as the chosen direction, and set to work recreating the world. This is likely only when humans are forced to find a better way. The concern is, we don't have much time left to make the turning. And are about to be set back years we can't afford to lose. But we shall dream on, because we must. It takes every hopeful human heart.
