Once Upon A Dream

Last night I had a dream
Not Just an ordinary dream
Extraordinary it may had seemed
This is how I recall the scene.

Loneliness reverse to joy as I looked out the door
I felt that accomplishment had endured
I saw laughter and love seized tears and hate
Wondering if humanity had started a new date
And forgetting all about fate?

I noticed that greed had lost the terrain
People were celebrating out in the rain
I walked toward a plain
And here I saw children at play
And then I saw the village where the people stay.

I'd soon visualized our world going through a drastic change
I had seen the war erupted and ended as peace emerged
I had come to realize that the seer predictions are true
And that colour and religion are no longer divided too.

Our world became into a wonderful place
And the people here on Earth are thankful for the change.

I'd awoke from the dream
I began to wonder about the content of the scheme
It seemed to me that it's a remarkable plan
Only if it comes true, only if it can
Now we all know that it's only a dream
Over all, I am not going to take it to the extreme.
