Poetry on my fears and dreams for my Spanish poetry class Spa 752

Un Viaje a través sueños hacia la libertad

            I

Sueño en francés y en inglés

Sueño en español y en italiano

Hablo a cada persona en su lengua

Aprendo una nueva lengua

Pertenezco al grupo que habla esta lengua

Aprendo el lenguaje de los gestos

Formo parte de la comunidad sorda-muda

Soy una persona internacional

Aprendo el lenguaje de los animales

Comunico con las aves y la naturaleza

Soy una persona universal

El lenguaje me liga al universo

            II

Marcho en el suelo a Coney Island con un amigo

El suelo no es sólido y debe ser reparado

Eso me recuerda de mis sueños

Las escaleras en maderas se rompen

Trato de subir o de bajar

Yo tengo miedo de caer

Sueño que alguien quiere matarme

Sueño que alguien intenta de matarme

Soy llena de angustia y de pavor

Está dentro de mi subconsciente

Hay allí una dimensión espiritual

Estos sueños no se realizaron

La fe me da esta convicción

 

III

He siempre soñado de volar

Dentro de mi subconsciente

Sueño que vuelo como Peter Pan

Me escapo de todo peligro

Vuelo como los pájaros

Subo cada vez más alto

Floto en el aire; me siento libre

            IV

A Coney Island sobre una montaña rusa

Grito, el grito primal terapéutico

Me siento libre; tengo ninguna inhibición

Gritar, reír es la mejor terapia

Para el alma y para la salud

Expreso mis sentimientos a través el piano

A través la música, el baile, los cantos, el arte

Me siento libre en la natación, el patinaje, la equitación

Yo enfrento y supero mis miedos

Talking about A Trip to the Moon

 
 

Quote

A Trip to the Moon

Georges Mlis' silent classic Le Voyage dans la Lune is recognized as the world's first science fiction film.

Peace

Gandhi, Martin Luther King Jr., Nelson Mandela, and Mother Teresa were peace makers and were against wars and all forms of violence.


Peace is not just about Religion and Philosophy, and politics, it's a way of life.
Gandhi practiced nonviolence and civil disobedience in order to bring about peace and justice. Martin Luther King Jr. said in one of his famous quotes that violence will cause more violence and hate. Nelson Mandela worked out against apartheid (racial segregation), even if it might have cost his life. He got arrested for 20 plus years and got freed (liberated). There's no more apartheid. Mother Teresa practiced generousity, compassion, love and charity to help the poor and that was a form of peace.


Other people who were anti-war were famous singers and activists are Marvin Gaye and John Lennon and others. Marvin Gaye said "What's Going", because people are killing each other in wars... "So we've got to find a way to bring some loving here today... War is not the answer"... Look at The Gulf War, The Vietnam War, and the War in Iraq, it's because they are not listening to the voice of the people. There is a Bible principle about peace and that's what the activities are doing even if they may have a different belief.

Forced democracy does not work. The civilians of the country at war retaliate in order to defend themselves and save their own lives. They should not be called "terrorists" if they are trying to stand up for what they believe.

The Bible says in Matthew 5: 9 "Blessed are the peacemakers for they shall be called children of God". It means can't just pray or hope for peace but you must do something, engage in it (be active). You don't have to a particular religion to know peace, it's innate. It's start with us, ourselves first. Also violent words are a form of killing like expressions "She's gonna kill me" and insults... Verbal abuse is a form of violence.
Peace is also being tolerant of others and not judging one another.
