My heart overflows with joy
Longing for this feeling to be unending
Satisfied, contented, and so pleased
Fearing that fatigue could ambush
I’m preparing to swap it with zeal
Forcing my heart to beat faster and stronger
I hold on to happiness and wish for no pain
Knowing that sorrow is a reality
I pray for comfort to overshadow
Cheering for calmness, peace, and harmony
I hope that love will drown out anger and hostility
Imagine this world filled with no hate, but kindness
Can you imagine?
Let our hearts be filled with love, leaving no place for hatred. HensBlooms

I could imagine, but it would be UTOPIA, not a real-world!
Thank you.

Thank you Joanna. I’m reminded of Carl Sagan’s quote “Imagination will often carry us to worlds that never were. But without it we go nowhere”
