Hope
A Poem

Dream, my child, dream. Dream of another world where people take care of each other and no one goes to bed hungry or feels the pain of being hit again and again by an angry father who drinks too much. Hope, my child, hope. Hope that all people will have the freedom and opportunity to love and be loved, to give and to be given, to encourage and to be encouraged, to challenge and to be challenged, to change and to be changed. Dream, my child, dream. For in our dreams do we find the hope we need to conquer our fears and overcome our doubts.
