see abridged version: A BROKEN WORLD

I want to leave the world a better place Without being so pretentious as to Imagine I can leave some astounding legacy But I do want to leave a little something I do want to have touched a few hearts Connected down here with a few souls Sparked a few children’s aspirations I do want to leave at least My ripple into this sea that is life AP: 3rd place 2020 Submitted on August 2, 2018 for contest YOUR FAVOURITE POEM FROM AUGUST, 2017 sponsored by JULIA WARD - RANKED 5TH on June 2, 2018 to contest YOUR PURPOSE IN LIFE sponsored by HEIDI SANDS and August 24, 2017 for contest RIPPLES IN THE WATER sponsored by NAYDA IVETTE NEGRON

Does a win in a poetry contest count as a ripple? I hope so. :) Congratulations from Julia.
