Colombia

Can I dream today of a beautiful land
where children dance by the sound of the rain
and their happy faces illuminate the nights
so the old and the tired can have hope
of better days and dreaming nights.


Can I dream today of peaceful soundless space
where we can all hold hands to embrace
the love and the strenght of our innerselfs
the ripples that our hearts form by pounding
one beat at the time like drums calling for joy.
