Will we ever live in a world
Where compassion and care
Rank top of the pile,
Where each help the other
And do it in style? .

This could then be spread
Without even a please
So all were reassured
And put at their ease.

No-one left all alone
To struggle and strive
All would find pleasure
In just being alive.

If I had the recipe
I`d bottle it soon,
Send it on the four winds
To be beamed by the moon.

This is all wishful thinking
Although I dreamt it was not,
While so many survive
With the little they`ve got.
