- Better World For All -


                   Behind the seven great mountains with sugar tops on
              There lies the valley where there is only love and happiness
                      There are not many who know these mountains
                       and rather few people know about this valley
                     The birds are singing so beautiful all year round
                  The flowers make themselves attractive to all the bees
                        People live in a wonderful harmony with love
                      No unfriendliness, no jealousy, no hard feelings
            This valley is like a little mini paradise, where everyone is happy
                      In happiness and love grow only the best of the best
                I've been searching for this valley all my life without finding it
               If we all were looking together maybe we will find a better world

I just love the way you have so beautifully imagined how it would be, if we all could get together and search for this valley of paradise. The message is deep down in our hearts where we should be looking and then creating this passage for others to enter embrace and create a better world for all. Lovely poem Anne Lisa - oxoxo

Excellent expectation. My sweet friend, I feel there is a world of which your dream depicts. In our world, it's totally impossible at present due to hundreds of reasons. Where all the people are perfect there this world may be. Thanks for all the comments. Loved always, bl
