Happily Ever After

What ever happened to happily ever after? 
No more fairy tales and magical stones? 
No. 
Instead, we are left with too many questions and few answers.
wars, bombs, death....Is anyone listening? 
violence, murder, exclusion..Does anyone even care?
No.
We are the only ones who can change the future because people like us started 
it all.
I would like to float up on a cloud and watch the world from above.  Not picturing 
how it is, but how it could be:  Peace, love, friendship, hope, faith, joy.  But soon, 
too soon......my cloud disappears and I am back on the ground, with too many 
questions and too few answers.  
Time is running out.  
The good will always prevail, but there are no more "once upon a time's" 
or "happily ever after's."
 No.
That only happens in books.
