I wish for a world where no plastic exists.
A place covered in trees
where people understand
that with all the trash
the junk
the waste
soon we can no longer exist.
–
I wish for a world where animals are equal.
A place with tables full
of vegetables
fruits
and even legumes
surrounded by people who realize
that with this planet there is no sequel.
–
I wish for a world where people talked face to face
A place for listening
eye contact
smiles
and hugs
not only words sent through space.
–
I wish for a world where we made each other smile
A place full of encouraging words,
helping hands
and loving friends
where everyone knows that they are worthwhile.

I wish for a world where everyone respects the beliefs of others, even when they are not the same as you own. I wish man wouldn’t hurt one another. Let’s create our own world.
So tender. Thank you. I too want more of this kind of a world.
Beautiful poem Shags! Love the way you organized it with the repetition, the pattern, and the 1st and last lines rhyming in each stanza. I wish for this world, too!
Your poem really struck me this morning. Maybe it’s because people will choose to text rather than call. Maybe it’s because I started reading the One and Only Ivan. But mostly, it’s because you put your true feelings out there. Thank you!
