I dreamed of a world at peace
The guns had grown silent and the violence had ceased.
I dreamed of a world gone green
No more pollution the air and seas where clean.
I dreamed of a world united
Working together instead of divided.
I dreamed of great ships that traveled the stars
Our working together had taken us far.
I dreamed of healthy people
No sickness, no drug addicts, and no crippled or feeble.
I dreamed I watch the children playing
Acceptance and friendship the words of the day.
I knew I was dreaming but I didn't care
I just wanted to keep dreaming and never leave there.
Sadly I did just because I awoke
Back to reality and this sad little joke.
Sad I say because we still have war.
Sadder still because of the waste
Oil slicks on beaches and animals dead in it's wake.
The high rates of crime and murder we find
The low rate of caring people on-line.
What I wouldn't give to be back in the dream
If only you could see the wonders I'd seen.
A world full of beauty
A world full of joy
A world full of wonders for all to enjoy.
It was a perfect world
It was a world that was grand
It's the world this could be if only hatred would end.
