Knowledge, But Still Hope
May 31, 2011
I hope to see the day when the flowers grow
Without the fear of being destroyed need not show.
I hope to see the day when children play outside
Without the fear of leaving their mothers' arms from which they are pryed.
I hope to see the day when the sun shines, bright and proud,
Without the fear of it;s rays being chased away by a cloud.
I hope to see the day when clouds lay in the sky
Without the overwhelming urge to cry.
I hope to see the day when people and nature can laugh and whirl,
But I know I never will, for there is too much sadness in the world.
