Dream of a Safe World

National Poetry Month & EARTH DAY—Isle of Skye, Scotland

 

Britain instigated one of the strictest gun-control regimes in the world, and now, all forms of gun-related violence have dropped significantly, and so for Australia's sweeping gun buy-back. We can live in peace. Be part of a green revolution and a peace&love revolution. 

 

"Green, how I want you green.
Green wind. Green branches.

The ship out on the sea

and the horse on the mountain.

With the shade around her waist

she dreams on her balcony.,

green flesh, her hair green,

with eyes of cold silver.

Green, how I want you green.

Under the gypsy moon,

all things are watching her

and she cannot see them.

—Frederico Garcia Lorca
