This poem is included in my Book/eBook ‘Clive’s Uni-Verse – A Cornishman’s take on life’. Published by Olympia Publishers in Jan 2022.
One day I dreamed … There was no longer any 'Third World', Just a united 'First', Famine clearly vanquished forever, And no-one died of thirst. Power was never used to enslave, And wars were fought no more, Man's resources were pooled together, To help aid all the poor. Man respected his fellow creatures, Living in harmony, The oceans free from all pollution; Helped by 'green' energy. People didn't need to live in fear; Crime a thing of the past, A planet no longer fragmented; A one-peace world at last. I awoke in time to catch the news; News of crime, famine, war, Moist-eyed I headed back to my bed, To try and dream ... some more!
