What I've Come to Want

I want to go to a place 
Where people are happy to see me
I want to glide through things
And feel there is romance there where people want to get diamond rings
I want to be in a place 
Where people care about each other 
Where they believe in their brothers and sisters 
And fathers and mothers 
I want to be in a place where they have picnics and BBQs
And they don't hurt people and let them know gently what and 
What not to do
I want to be in a place where jobs are plentiful 
And you have the opportunity to teach your 
Full potential 
I want to be in a place where people reach out kindly 
And you feel you have a little bit of you can pursue your dreams in a fashion that's timely

I feel that this is something I've seen in a lot of places
And that it's a beautiful dream that comes to reality in a lot
of cases
Take a moment and understand what you love in life
And hopefully you will find it without a lot of strife!
