''I dream a world where man
No other man will scorn,
Where love will bless the earth
And peace its paths adorn.
I dream a world where all
Will know sweet freedom's way,
Where greed no longer saps the soul
Nor avarice blights our day.
A world I dream where black or white,
Whatever race you be,
Will share the bounties of the earth
And every man is free,
Where wretchedness will hang its head
And joy, like a pearl,
Attends the needs of all mankind--
Of such I dream, my world!''
(Langston Hughes)
What this poem means to me is that Langston Hughes wishes life wasn't so crew, he wishes man kind was one and not being chanllenged because the color of your skin. That life wasn't decided for us that men kind had s chance to speak what they wnat to say have the freedom to do what they want. He wants a world of beauty in every site not a meaning of having to look for beauty under all the distruction.Tthe world is field with danger, life of nothing but violence, goals of distrusction, he wishes color wasn't such a distraction to others, and that maybe the terrors happening in the world would matter more. Motther earth is suffering because of our hate, he wishes peace could take over and make it a better place for our children and our childrens children.
A treaty must be accomplished, love should over power hate, the power we have to pick a distant relationship, and a better value of life. What we live off of is paper and instead taking money for granted we treat those we love with hate and sore. Our futture is in the hands of others higher then us, she should show and accomplish ,the paths they give us and not make more distruction. Faith is a pain and we always end up paying for others mistakes which Im sure everyone hates. To me when people like this poet writter speaks his mind he has found the way of being free and peace and using love instead of hate. He just want to let us follow his map and his quest.
