Tell me a story
Dazzle me with your eyes
Capture me with your words
Rile me in with your lies

Tell me of a world of beauty
Sing me a perfect song
One full of love and happiness
In a world where we all get along

Tell me of a great fantasy land
Where money doesn't rule
Where everyone is equal
Where nobody is cruel

Where people never go hungry
And never have to live on the streets
Where children can play carelessly
And not have to worry about who they meet

Where poverty isn't an issue
And no one speaks of war
And where nobody knows
What weapons are made for

Tell me a story
Of a world unlike our own
Of a world we'll never see
Of a world we've never known

Author's Comments

So I was going through some old stuff today and found some old story books that my mom used to read me when I was a kid, and I used to read them to my little cousin when she was living with me.

They made me think about how far from reality those storys are. And it just makes me sad thinking about the kind of world my little cousin and my baby's are going to have to grow up in.

Comments welcome.

Wow. The heart in this piece really makes a person think. I adore your rhyme scheme and word choice. As I read this, I felt shivers up my spine and I realized how very true all that is. Your vision of an ideal world matches that of many.

Sorry. I would have been here sooner, but the shiny saxophone of doom distracted me.

Don't be afraid to write. You can always rewrite it later.

Awesome job here. Kept me reading through the whole thing, the point was very good. :clap: And I think we all wish for that at some point in time.
