In a perfect
world, there is no hate.
In a perfect
world, there is no evil.
In a perfect
world, all is quiet.
We don’t
live in a perfect world,
We had one
once, but let it slip away.
We can never
return there…ever.
In a perfect
world, people always smile.
In a perfect
world, there are no locks.
In a perfect
world, love is abundant.
But, we
don’t love those that are different.
We lock away
our hopes and dreams.
Scornful
cynicism is all we show on our faces.
In a perfect
world, children laugh and play.
In a perfect
world, adults help out their neighbors.
In a perfect
world, fear is not an option.
Our children
know not the joy of games.
We only ask
“What’s in this for me?”
Failure and
discontentment rule our thoughts.
The only perfect
world now is in our fantasies.
Search not
unless you are prepared to find it.
The road is
hard and rough…stay the course.
