A World of Dreams, Hope, and Tragedies

A poem about the world today, with global warming, chaos of war, and the people who give us hope.

 Take a look at our world today.

From  North America to China.

The ice caps are melting.

The animals are dying out.

A war in Iraq.

When will the wars end?

When will the killing end?

We can only hope that there will be no more wars.

No more suffering.

We need to work hard to make sure this world isn't overheating.

For the animals.

For our friends.

Our family.

Everyone.

Everyday people die.

Everyday a person is born.

Everyday life and death can be in one person's hands.

Why do people hurt and heal?

Why do they destroy?

Why do they create?

As the sun rises one part of the world, and the sun sets in another, and the moon rises and the stars come out.

One side dreams, one side is awake.

Sometimes someone can make another cry.

Sometimes a person can make the whole world cry.

We aren't that different from each other.

We all share this world.

The stars, the ocean, the animals, and the sun and moon.

We all have hearts and love.

Leaders around the world give us something to live for.

Some for hope.

Some for change.

Others for war.

Everyday people die for others.

Everyday people make others happy or sad.

Some people make a difference.

Our hearts all beat as one.

Remember when the towers fell?

The whole world cried.

"Today we are all Americans"

Well we've come a long way.

We are almost there.

To no more war, no suffering, and no more weapons.

I see a world where people will break their guns, having no use for them.

I see a world where people live in happiness and animals are thriving.

I see a world where there is peace and there is no global warming.

I see a world where there are no terrorists.

And finally, I see a world of hopes and dreams, the very soul of this Earth.

The stuff that people are made of.
