If I Were In Charge of the World
If I were in charge of the worldI’d cancel lies,
Working in suits and ties.
I’d cancel hate
And lines that cause us to wait.
If I were in charge of the world
Every child would have a dad,
And food would never go bad.
Every life would have true love,
And war our world would be free of.
If I were in charge of the world
You wouldn’t have hunger
Old people would feel younger.
You wouldn’t look at weight
And no one would ever show up late.
If I were in charge of the world
Dessert would come after every meal
That would just be part of the deal.
Smiles would be on every face
So people would all brush their teeth, just in case.
And someone who doesn’t always clean her plate
And sometimes wakes up late,
Would still be allowed to be in charge of the world.
A priest friend of mine always ate his dessert first, just in case he ran out of room from eating dinner. And, I figure if that rule is good enough for a priest, it's good enough for me. :~)
ReplyDeleteI really liked this poem! Your lines all rhymed and it flowed so well!
