Perfect
If sunlight always beat darkness,
and good always triumpheted over sin.
If happiness glazed every frown,
and when it comes to fights the hero always wins.
If every apple was round,
and white purified black.
If people were never poor,
and in jobs nobody slacked.
If the birds sang every morning,
and at night crickets perfectly chirped away.
If everyone achieved 100's,
and clothes never frayed.
If people never fought,
and money grew on trees.
If dogs never bit,
and the sting was not on the bees.
If every human was healthy,
and friendship lasts forever.
If time would move as fast as you please,
and nobody ever said never.
If your hair always looked perfect,
and all of these things were true,
Then I guess you could say, that life would be perfect too.
