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
