COMMON JUSTICE

The way the world was first created to be.....

If silence were golden
And silver were free,
I'd wish on the moonlight
To bring you to me.

If lovers were happy
All over the earth,
I'd sing every morning
To witness their mirth.

If evil were banished
And sin was no more,
I'd feel safe to be here
And lie on the shore.

If justice were common
And peace held her reign,
The world would be Eden
And I'd have no pain.

If only....filled with hope and yet sprinkled with a bit of cynicism and emotional pain too. The rhythm and rhyme is super, Sharon. Lydi**

Beautiful rhyme tells of pain...

[Miss Sharon]

Thank you very much Tomas! ~Sharon

[jacob erin-cilberto]

oh if only this poem could come true...would love to witness that mirth...

[Miss Sharon]

Yes indeed Jacob....I would love to witness that as well. One of the best things about being a writer is that we can always "write in the happy parts" as though they actually were. ~Sharon
