I Have a Dream

Poems from Around the World


I Have a Dream......

I Dream that people will not fight.

I Dream that people will keep the earth clean.

I Dream people will be kinder.

I Dream people will stop hating one another.

I Dream people will start talking to one anther.

I Wish the world could pull together to be one.

I Dream people will be more caring.

I Dream that people will start wishing more.

I have a Dream that this Dream could happen.

I have a dream that one day all countries will give their people equal

opportunity .

I have a dream that someday there will be peace everywhere and there will

be no wars over race, religion, nationality, or anything else. I have a

dream that all petty differences will be forgotten and no longer will we

dispute over whether or not this is the right religion or culture for our

country.

I have a dream that all countries will rid themselves of their nuclear weapons

thus ending the cold war. There will be less tension throughout the world

and you won't have to worry about neighboring countries nuking you.

I have a dream,

That we will adopt more children,

We won't bring anymore hungry mouths into the world, That somewhere,

There will be one less hungry person in the world.

 

by Jared Victorius

*****

I have a dream that one day Happiness will reign throughout the earth, That

no more teenage girls will be giving birth. That all diseases will have a

cure,

That people will suffer never more.

The crime and the violence will come to a stop, And the percentage of drug

use will continue to drop. I have a dream that peace will come for all, And

tyranny will meet its downfall.

DREAMS FOR THE FUTURE

 

We have a dream that one day, all children will have a chance to get proper

nutrition, education, and a loving home. Another dream for our future is

that those children, along with everyone else in the world, will be able to

walk out of their houses feeling confident of themselves, and feeling safe.

We have a dream that everybody will die peacefully and not have to suffer.

By Sara Usher, Megan Owens and Bethany Hellstern. Grade 8

MY DREAM.....

Why do the children suffer?

Why are their stomachs swollen with malnutrition? Why must they roam the

streets looking for food and protection? In the utopia I dream of,the

children are safe,healthy,and happy!

Dream

We have a dream that no one can look down on their fellow people. Everyone

would do their fair share of work and no one will be cheated.

Our dream is that fewer children will go hungry. All will have enough food

to live.

No one in this world will need to turn to drugs, violence, or suicide to

solve their problems.

This is our dream.

We have a dream that there will be a cure for all of our illnesses. We have

a dream that people won't die prematurely. We have a dream that violence

will perish instead of the children of today.

We have a dream there will be no more need for abortion. We have a dream

that people won't die of hunger. We have a dream...........

We have a dream.

That children will never have to walk alone. That families will never have

to lock their doors. That noone will need a gun for protection. That we

will always be able to see the stars. That wild animals will always be

free.

That people will be happy with who they are. And then there will be peace.

I have a dream that the violence will stop I have a dream that my luck

would change for the best I have a dream that everyone would be friends I

have a dream that love would rule over all evil ways I have a dream that

everyone would have someone special, and not be alone

I have a dream that drugs and homelessness would just disappear I have a

dream that racism and hunger will have an answer I have a dream that this

someday won't be a dream But a reality instead

I have a dream that everyone will recycle. I have a dream that everyone

will plant a tree. I have a dream that there will be a cure for blindness.

I have a dream that everyone's teeth will be perfect. I have a dream that

those stupid movies won't be made anymore. I have a dream that there won't

be over population. I have a dream that someone will find a reusable fuel.

I have a dream that there will be a cure for deafness.

I have a dream...

That one day everyone will be without want I have a dream...

That one day everyone will act upon the phrase, "All men are created equal"

I have a dream...

That one day men and women will be treated according to their character and

not persecuted because of their beliefs I have a dream...

That one day I will be able to live up to my own dreams I do have a dream.

ISRAEL

I have a dream that there will be peace on earth,

In the South, in the East, in the West and in the North.

No more wars.

No more disappointments, of course.

And when we'll have that, it will be for sure,

There won't be any difference between rich and poor.

I wish everybody could have food and shelter,

I wish this dearm would last forever.

 

Tamar

Amit Ulpanit High School, Safad, Israel

*I want to be a mother and to take care of my kids, and a teacher for kids that

have problems learning. I want to teach them Torah (our religion, as we

learned it from Moses on Mt. Sinai).

*I want the world to know HaShem (G-d) and to respect him.

*I will help and that's why I want to teach kids Torah.

*****

 

I have a dream,

And in order to have peace in the world,

We must hold it tight, tight,

And never allow it to leave.

And the way to keep it needs to be a special way,

The way of love,

And to help one another with no argument,

Or war.

Because peace is not just a cosmic thing.

There's peace between a man and his friend,

And only like this can we have peace.

 

Yamit, Amit Ulpanit, 9th grade, Safed, Israel

* I want to be an artist, a painter, when I grow up.

* I don't want the world to be different, I just want the Arabs to not hate

us just because we are Jewish.

* It is a very difficult problem, and I don't think that it depends on us.

It depends on the Arabs. We don't hate them.

*****

 

I have a dream that there will be peace.

Not war,

Not crying,

Just peace

And a good life,

That is all that we want.

 

Shimrit

Amit Ulpanit, 9th grade, Safed, Israel

*I want to be a mother and I want to have children and I want

to teach my children.

* I want the world to be beautiful and to have peace.

* I don't know.

*****

A man came and asked me to make a wish.

I didn't wish for a car or a boat.

I just want quiet and tranquility.

I want a country with a lot of love.

I want people to stop dreaming and to do something.

I want everybody to be united forever.

I want the day to come that peace will come.

But before I could make my wish,

The man disappeared, and all that remained was hope...

 

Revital

Amit Ulpanit, 9th grade, Safed, Israel

*I want to be a lawyer when I grow up.

*I want more love between all the people.

*I will be careful about the trees and the flowers and all the flora.

I Have A Dream

 

I have a dream that peace will come to all of us. I have a dream that

the world will be safe, from wars and hatred. I hope all of our dreams

come true. From having equality to finding a new world. Dreams are

what keep all of us alive. Keep dreams in your heart, and don't forget

them.
