Re: Martin Luther King Poem

[KAREN DEFRANK <KDEFRANK@GLASSBORO.K12.NJ.US>]

I have a Scholastic paperback called _Celebrations_ by Myra Cohn Livingston
from 1985 with this poem in it.

Martin Luther King Day

The dream
of Martin Luther King
will happen
in some far-off Spring

when winter ice
and snow are gone.
One day, the dreamer
in gray dawn

will waken
to a blinding light
where hawk and dove
in silent flight

brush wings together
on a street
still thundering
with ghostly feet.

And soul will dance
and soul will sing
and march with
Martin Luther King.
