Imagine Poem by Benjamin Chiu Uy

Imagine

A solemn hope or a prayer,
Like a song forthe earth and the sky,

Like a song for a lovely maiden,
To let us remember that we are alive and we are hearing God,

Praise your mothers, praise mother earth for this lovely home,
Praise John Lenon, for a world without borders,
a world without countries, racial discriminations, greed, war and hunger,

Praise a heaven without their false Gods,
false robes, false prophets and false investiture as the sole authority and ladder to the true Church,

Praise their honesty if they are saying we are all created equal with the same layer of skin but different colors,

Praise John Lenon for his radical vision
His universal dream for peace, prosperity and a brotherhood of men

As any dream you could be planning to let happen against this vast riddles and mysteries of space,

Like God yourself imagine what this world will become,
If a single voice could set us on a long journey to alter all the other misconceptions, assumptions, set of rules and beliefs,

Imagine John Lenon when he sings Imagine,
Imagine what life could be if you Imagine.
