Dare dream
my dear children
today and tomorrow
the same
Some many still remain
Dare Dream
a new dream
so many like you
are in your company
pay homage
to the great preacher
who knew it would be possible some day
Dare dream
the bold dream
the one some will tell
is too ambitious
just keep your eye on the prize
Dare dream
because it does not cost you anything
only good will, hard work, and passion
Dare Dream
out loud,
proudly
wide-eyed and determined
to be the change
just because
it is with you
where dreams fulfilled begin
Dare Dream
my children
you are not alone
the first stone
has been set
by the architect
who led the fight
for equal
civil and social rights
Dare Dream
It has not been deferred
it will not explode
Dare Dream
Dare Dream
Dare Dream
– Melba Christie
“I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character.”
“Take the first step in faith. You do not have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step.”
– Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
