This senryu, Just a Dream, presented with a 5-7-5 formatting, makes the observation that peace is always the goal but should never be expected to be the final reality in this life.

It might be just a dream. world peace. If you don't dream about it and how it might be accomplished, then there will never be a chance for it to happen. Good luck with the contest.

It is a dream, but it will become a reality one day ... when men's hearts are changed. Well written Senryu, and excellent image. Best wishes for your entry in the contest.

I understand your sentiment. We pray for world peace but it is like paddling against the wind. There are so many forces and so much dark energy in the way that it's acts like a shield that prevents any real possibility of peace coming to fruition. Still we continue to pray and we hope. Good luck in the contest.

This is such a touching poem. Simple, yet effective. And the artwork you have chosen sets off your emotional landscape perfectly. Well done! and good luck in the contest.

Nicely written Senryu piece of poetry on prayers for world peace, but with quite a sad conclusion. The photo you have chosen of Mother Theresa is beautiful.

A poignant write and the world will never be at peace as there are always those who want to upset the apple cart, we see them in the classrooms and in the workplace and in the pubs, there are those who are disruptive and those who live in peace, a poignant write, love Dolly x

Beautiful poem such a perfect image to illustrate it as well. If only...but if enough of us pray, maybe this dream will come true. A dreamy poem indeed. I Love the title.
