LIVED BY DREAM

Written by Juliana de Sousa
13 years old
Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

Many green hills I would run upon
Tell yellow daisies many of my secrets
Lie on fresh grass
Thinking only of the stars
Under the starry sky.

I would dream of sheeps
Wake up to the sun rays shining on my face
And the chirping of the birds
The music would reach my ear
Joy would reach my feet.

As the only thing I would do
Would be to skip along the deserted road
I would pick a rose
And with its scent rest
I suppose!

Juliana wrote, “This poem was written by me, as I thought of Betsy, Tacy and their dream of a home.”
