A Remedied World

A Remedied World

You question how the world, a single sole entity, can become "better"

I say, the question is how we can make it wetter

Lack of flow, bringing of drought

World ceasing to revolve, lasting with its faults

Once warm puffy clouds dissipating, evaporating, seeming to be gone

Rain storms with it, once thundering and quarrelsome

A rainbow's variegation shattering into pure colorless glass

Limitless sky; disappearing; rendering itself quite rash....

Then add diseases amplifying the embrace of death, of lasting light's kiss

Pain, scars, rashes, depression, drugs, suicide, a lack of pure bliss

Without which the world would be on an all time high

Passing along, singing its song; now of dreariness, gloaming, and demise

Littering past, human fallacy scattered to the heavens

Where white clad angels can remedy, shape, mend, and recondition

Soulless beings past reprobation, extricated by holy saints

Odd, mediocre, disquieting creatures acquire places of deserved rank

Bias eliminated, nonexistent, and consequentially extinct

Lies, such as knives, stabbing through people's minds, who are just wishing to be heard

A voice to all, a representation, a desire for truth and authenticity through the individual word

Helping hand within aiding hand, embracing; clutching; relying

Four chambered hearts connected by more than just arteries and veins

Looks and beauty disregarded, individuals regarded by genuineness and what the inside contains

A revival of creation, fabrication, construction, and development; a demolition decrease

A contemporary Renaissance; exemplifying morals, relevant issues, and (of course) world peace

How such a power could be improved, however, is beyond me

As a human being, I believe there to be only one "bona fide" method to appease

The world must band together and weather the many incoming storms

As an entity, no individual can stand alone

Lasting, falling, producing, and shaping

Our world is a wondrous realm of rights, liberty, and personal conscientiousness in the making

While this sphere shall advance within time, one statement remains true

In regard to our planet, all must pitch in and pledge time in order to make it harmonious, healthy, and breathtakingly beautiful

So to our glorious, all encompassing world, or mundo, ashkharh, mondo, orbis, sekai, shìjiè, segye, wereld, welt, kósmo and monde

~I have faith in you~

The End

I wish your wish will be true. I myself would pledge to make it better. And I really like the last part where you translated world in different languages. Good Luck on your contest!

[Lyric]

You are an amazing writer, this is beautiful, and i really truly don't have any criticism for you. (P.s. I am very impressed by how many languages you can say 'world' in)

[Danni]

Thank you so much! I am very critical of my own writing, especially this poem, as it didn't win (or even receive second place) out of five entries at a high school level. Your faith in my writing means so much to me and makes me feel so much better about it. Also, translators can be helpful ;) just a tip to keep in mind

[Lyric]

Yep, I'll keep that in mind ;-) :-)
