The words of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., and of Isaiah the prophet (Isaiah 40:4-5 from the King James Bible) make up this found poem for Advent:
I have a dream that one day
Every valley shall be exalted,
And every mountain and hill shall be made low:
And the crooked shall be made straight,
And the rough places plain:
And the glory of the Lord shall be revealed,
And all flesh shall see it together.
Note: I found this poem in and adapted it from the Rev. Dr. King's address at the Lincoln Memorial during the March on Washington on August 28, 1963.
