POEM

In My Dreams

by Francisco X. Alarcón
buffaloes roam
free once again
on the plains
whales become
5 opera singers
of the sea
dolphins are
admired by all for
their smarts and joy
10 in my dreams
there is no word
for “war”
all humans
and all living
15 beings
come together
as one big family
of the Earth
