2022 November PAD Chapbook Challenge 12

Prompt: write a future poem.

A Dream

A probably-not-going-to-happen idea

That everyone realizes they live in fear

Of the differences between us all

Their love of the sameness is at fault

How boring to see only one tree of green

Or one red rose is all you could see

No colorful sunsets, soft yellow only

Wouldn’t you consider it sad, even lonely?

Instead, let us hope for a better future

Where all colorful differences are nurtured.
