I would like a world of peace
no raised voices, no schism, no conflict.
I would like a world of quietness.
Not silence, but the quietness of God's creation;
the waves, the birds, the creek.
I would like a world of comfort.
Not luxury that will make us greed.
But just the contentment of the simple things God has gave.
I would like a world of kindness.
No harsh words and criticism.
Just patience and understanding and love.
I would, wouldn't you?
