A NEW PARADISE


  I sit back and think of the possibility that we
  May start again,

  If not here then is there some other place of peace 
  And happiness?
             
  In the beginning we hear about a garden, it 
  Disappeared from us,

  A new paradise where we can hear the birds sing 
  Without trouble on the horizon.

  Listen to the wind without the painful, tragic, sounds 
  Of sirens,

  A wonderful island, a new world where we are equal 
  In every way.

  Money holds no meaning in this paradise home where 
  Not a soul walks alone,

  Food so plenty, pains of hunger never again in this new 
  Paradise where all are friends.

  Sickness no more, no worries of a cure that were learned 
  About many years before,

  A place that sounds familiar, written in story books, a 
  Fantasy not believed,

  Believe in this as once such a place did exist, a lesson 
  Learned if so happens again.
