I Dream

I dream of Buffalo. A Buffalo that thrives on tourism and all of the jobs that come with it.

I dream of the waterfront. Alive with people from all walks of life enjoying their interests and desires.

I dream of a cultural center. An area where one can buy any product or eat at any restaurant as if the whole world was in one spot.

I dream of picnics. A place where family and friends can enjoy each other and watch the sun go down over the lake.

I dream of concerts. A floating concert platform where bands can play to thousands of their fans at one gathering.

I dream of festivals and events. Events of almost any theme that one can imagine from car shows to craft shows to cultural festivals. 

I dream of playing games. An area outdoors and or indoors depending on the weather where I can play almost any form of sport around.

I dream of cruising on the lake. Cruises for one evening to throw the dice or a seven-day trip to see the other cities around our Great Lakes.

I dream of water sports. Wind surfing, jet skiing, or boating, with a place to rent them if one doesn’t own them.

I dream of a indoor/outdoor water park. Sliding down water slides, laying in a wave pool, or squirting friends as they go by on a tube ride during any time of the year in either good or bad weather.

I dream of a Amusement Park. Of riding roller coasters and thrill rides or eating cotton candy and hot dogs.

I dream of golfing. Shooting a round or two with friends or watching the greats like Tiger Woods or Ernie Els compete.

I dream of nature. Of walking slowly through nature preserves and teaching children the names of the birds they see and hear or at times teaching them just to be still.

I dream of a place to live. An apartment or townhouse where all of these dreams are just a stroll away.

I dream of owning my own business. Of opportunities abounding. Maybe a hot dog stand, cultural shop, Water taxi, Restaurant, or even a cruise liner.

I dream of a unified community. A community where all backgrounds come together to make the dream come true.

I dream of the growth of Buffalo. Of every attraction that the city now has growing and becoming well known throughout the world.

I dream of a future. Where no one remembers the sorrow we felt when we lived in despair and watched our population dwindle. 

I dream of returning. Of watching those who had to leave in order to make a living return to us and to their true home.

I dream of this dream. A big dream yes, an unattainable dream no.
