a village named dream

there is a village
in the philippines
named Dream: 	   

a home where
wild lilies bloom
        free	

 where 	no bullets
	dare defile the spider’s
    	  solitude
	and communion
    with the grass

where girls can swim
in the river     pick up snails
and come  back home
      unafraid        unscathed

come with me
let us go
to Dream.
