In an Ideal World

In an ideal world

people could be what they are without worry.

In an ideal world 

we would have time for what's really important.

In an ideal world

the work would stop before overtaking us.

In an ideal world

people would recover from all injury.

In an ideal world 

there would be no pain that couldn't be eased.

In an ideal world

There would be no illness without cure.

In an ideal world

people would truly listen.

In an ideal world

everyone would care for everyone else.

In an ideal world

no one would ever die from need.

In an ideal world

the person writing this

would never hide 

that she is an idealist at heart.

I like the ideal world. Good to seek a place where we feel safe and sound. No perfect world. Maybe we can find a place to be content. Good to be a idealist. I believe if we lead by love and kindness. The world would be a better place. Thank you for reading and the comment.

"In an ideal world, people would truly listen" - This line meant a lot to me... because it is true.

I love the ending, also.

Lovely thoughts from you as always...if only we lived in an ideal world and a peaceful world...nicely said Diana....Rose:)

[Diana]

Thank you, Rose.

If only...what is funny is so many people think this way, but it just doesn't come about. In an ideal world, each and every one of us would do our part, regardless of how small, to see these things you have mentioned become a reality. Nicely stated Diana.

[Diana]

So many people think this way, but don't talk about it. Thanks, Jack.

Brings to mind John Lennon's "Imagine". Yes, in an ideal world. We can all hope for this in the future....why not? Lovely thoughts and images. Lydi**

[Diana]

Thank you, Lydi.
