I wish the Earth to be
A place for people like you and me
Where lessons are learnt throughout our life
But all in balance not in strife
Where children are loved, valued and protected
Their future bright as they expected
With challenges many, but pleasures too
And a love of nature by all, not a few
Where dolphins play and oceans sing
And fairies dance in a fairy ring
Where compassion guides our every act
And honesty signs every pact
Where no-one goes unloved, unheard
And everyone knows there’s no such thing as dead
Where goodness flows like a river clear
Refreshing, replenishing everything near
This is the world I’d like to know
And love is the seed that we must sow
To reap the harvest in a future not far
Making the Earth a much brighter star
