What if . . .
Everyone desired to be the source of profound change.
All people wanted to educate
Instead of hate one another.
Others shared a passion
To clean the world of litter and prejudice.
To eliminate class and borders
Because poverty and sickness
Have no borders.
If only we would make ignorance our adversary-
Not our fellow human beings.
Embrace idealism
In place of pessimism.
Rethink tradition
And annihilate the obsolete,
Trite routine.
What if we showed compassion
In place of contempt.

Exactly! We must show compassion to humanity as a whole.
ReplyDeleteGreat Blog Page. Love your title too. Very deep "What If" post, as always. I think we'll talk about using some of these poems in our Writer's Rock Zine. Well done~
