Imagine That

If there was no crime
No hurry for time
No genocide
No homicide
If there was no mothers burying their sons
If mankind didn't invent guns
If schools still had prayer
If everybody recognize Jesus Christ as our savior
If there was love and respect
No hate between white and black
No homeless
No loneliness
No wars
No rich or poor
No accidents or disasters
If man only served one master (God)
Imagining is good for all it's worth
Heaven is definitely not planet earth

Reminds me of Lennon's "Imagine." Yes, we can imagine the world you describe, but as you indicate, reality bites.

Congratulations on being featured, Jeffrey! A beautiful write, the what "If" and the "No" mores. The world does feel topsy turvey..maybe we do "hurry for time", and rush past the importants. No, "Heavaen is not planet earth"...schools teach of the universe, but sadly, they have removed prayer. Best to you and yours...Mikki

It sounds like you have described Heaven. If we choose the right and allow our Lord Jesus Christ to guide us, we'll live in a place like that. Too bad we can't wave a magic wand and make everyone perfect.... Oh well, I guess we'll just make the best of what we have for now. Congratulations on having your poem featured this week.
