The Dream of Dr. King


The Dream of Dr. King© copyright 2009 Benita Lewis

There once lived a man Dr. Martin Luther King
This man, dared to dream
For the plight of others, he stood the test
Because of his dream, for their rights he pressed.

Dr. King didn’t dream in black or white
Instead he dreamed in col-or
A rainbow of hope for the civil rights fight
A dream for which many fought for.

Dr. King didn’t live to see his dream come true
But generations later the dream realized
Would validate the dream of the dreamer
Dr. King now eulogized.

The Dream of Dr. King
Visions of equality for little boys and girls
Thank God for the dreamer
Thank God for Dr. Martin Luther King.
