The World

The world
is a wonderful place
to be

And to roam
all over the world
see the sights
every country has to offer

I haven't gone very far
around the world

yet

But I've been to
Paris
when I was one and a half

China
when I was eleven

Hawaii
when I was eight

Tahoe
when I was six

And I live
in one of the most
well-known cities
in the U.S.

San Francisco
The rolling hills
the foggy bay
the cable cars
the Pacific Ocean

And I love
the seashore
the sunrise
the sunset

Inspiration
comes from wherever I am
as long as my imagination
is up and running

But I would love to go somewhere else
see the world
meet exotic people
in foreign lands

I would love to
go to these places
and see the rest of the world

Because the world is
a wonderful place to be
if you know where to look.
