"Martins Dream"
by JustOneStoryTeller
Original painting by Derek Russell
We are still a long way from Martins dream
and the few things that have changed can easily
be redeemed for money and political esteem
So many still judged by their race, but yet we
Iive in a democracy of racism and trust me
we will never be free of that just look at
all the history dating back
The dream is good and long overdue but
some can never get pass the Judas kiss that
is a tainted betrayal that Jesus knew
One day we keep hoping and praying to see
it come to pass but equality is so far from
reach and yet we have a new generation
being born in which we need to teach
I have a dream, you have a dream and he did, to
hopefully, our babies will come to know the
unity of the red, white, and blue and God’s love so true.

This is inspiring and reminds me that there are great people who have big dreams to full, and many who are right there, willing to be involved in some way with something bigger than the common thread.
