The way the world should be

karen o'brien 1972 (Newcastle upon tyne)



In my world there are no wars ,
Pain and suffering exist no more .
Cruelty , evil and spire have been shown the door .
We live together side by side
In harmony peace and love .
We do  not hate any more.

Nobody dies through cruelty or neglect .
We show each other mutual respect .

Acceptance of other’s beliefs and way of life .
Is the thing for which we strive .

We stand together side by side ,
Hand in hand .
Together we thrive .
Let us come come together ,
Man , woman and child .
Let us make this ideal our new way of life I

About this poem

It is an ideal of how the world should be and how we should be united instead of divided
