When the entire world is going Sane
Poem by: Ashley I Read
I often look at the ways of society
And think how it has lost its dignity.
People living in frivolous ways
When they escape the sun’s rays
At night we see a different life
Surrounded by troubles and strife
And nothing can be done to stop this.
But if I had only one wish
I’d see this world pull together
Where the biggest worry is the weather
Not that you could be shot or cut
By some loony night-time knife wielding nut
We could walk down the streets and forget about fear
Without constantly watching the rear
Live in a world where all is good
No evil left, wish for this I would.
If love could truly conquer all
So no one else would have to fall
By the hands of so much hate
No one would have to dream of that heavenly gate.

That’s the world I would one day want to live in.
I enjoyed reading this poem.
Dare to dream.

A beautiful thought :) It's nice to know that other people contemplate society in this way too.
