My Perfect World


    In my perfect world there would be no guns,
        or bombs, no terrorists and no wars;
    we would bring our soldiers home alive,
        no poverty or abuse would exist.

    Love, freedom, happiness for everyone,
        Kindness-   falling from all lips;
All children, boys and girls would be educated,
        The environment free of all pollution.

            Animal cruelty-  a thing of the past,
But I am just a girl, a tiny speck in this world;
    Yet,  I have a mighty voice to speak,
        Please save this world before it is too late.

I write letters, make a speech, donate time,
    Help one person that I happen upon;
          Pray for a cure to all diseases,
Support those who suffer seeking a tranquil death.
