Dream
Keeper
Bring me
all of your dreams,
You dreamers,
Bring me all of your
Heart melodies
That I may wrap them
In a blue cloud-cloth
Away from the too-rough fingers
Of the world.
--Langston
Hughes

What are your dreams to
share with the world? What
is your dream flag?
What words bring
your dream into lines of poetry that can flutter on fabric?
What images and
colors make your hopes take shape and fly in a flag?

Inspired by the
poetry of Langston Hughes and the tradition of Buddhist prayer flags,
The Dream Flag Project is about creating a line of dreams that can span
the world and wrap us all in a blue cloud-cloth.
--Make your own
8 1/2" x 11" Dream Flags on fabric.
--Begin
the project the week of February 1, 2004, Langston Hughes' 102nd birthday.
--Connect the Dream Flags by the week of March 28th, 2004.
