Dreaming

Dreaming

Would we allow ourselves to see

The essence of our humanity, lies in our diversity

Our pigment, distinct faces, hair textures, body contours 

Nature bears evidences to this, in forms, functions, a variety of flavors

Organically beautiful, seamless, bring smiles to a delightful sun 

A moon looks down in calm assurance, says, "you're alright!".

Accepted, loved, cared for by a planet willingly giving 

Would that we be such to ourselves, who ask for nothing else

Earth houses us, how boring a place without topography, earthly difference

Her twists and turns, expressed unevenness, gives meaning and joy

Would that we touch, feel her sensation that comes from being

Everything of substance, matter, must realize its reason for being

A world awaits all to be as one, for at our core all are really one 

Where love reigns supreme, as joy and peace are lived out

Unafraid to cherish our differences, in a place asking to be release

A classroom of life, where looking around we see value in each other

Moments everywhere, when men live out our variety to the fullest

Desire so willingly as to hold on, treasure it, nurture it

While all around begs us to look, listen, testify, and hopefully see 

That nothing's more precious to this realm as the presence of you and me
