Firstly, I would block all computer pop ups
Because they drive poor Dan quite mad …
But remember Poetry Soup get an income
So if they disappear PS would be pretty sad!

I would prescribe sunny days for everyone
Because they brighten up dull times in our life
But we still need refreshing showers of rain
To rejuvenate our wonderful world again

I pray a cure would be found for cancer
And every other medical condition too
People would enjoy a long and healthy life
I hope it’s a dream that can come true 

Poverty, terrorism and war would cease to exist
Sadly these issues are down to the human race
I pray we can all live in peace and harmony 
And one day our earth will be a better place

using humor to set-up a serious note is quite effective way to make a point, nice job Jan

A compendium of bliss here, dear Jan, but what would Donald Trump do for the pissed off vote? Seriously, you be cool. Love, daver
