"...there was peace all over the world ?"

Wouldn't It Be Great If... ...there was peace all over the world. All people would be nice and respect each other. All people will be able to take care of themselves and not be poor. All people will have homes to live in. All people will have enough food and not be hungry. All people will be able to keep themselves clean. All people will have clothes to keep themselves warm. All people will be able to learn in school, continue to learn in life and have fun. All people will think about their future by recycling so there will be enough resources and no pollution. The world can be made a better place if we all work TOGETHER

Everyone would be glad, No one would be mad, If there was no such thing as bad. The world would be safe, It would be a better place, If there was no such thing as bad. There would be no thiefs, There would be no grief, If there was no such thing as bad. There would be good grades, There would be good parades, If there was no such thing as bad. There would be good days, In very good ways, If there was no such thing as bad. So when this poem is read, Remember in your head, That there is no such thing as bad!

The Fire Late At Night "I like the fire late night, Burning, burning very bright. It crackles as the logs burn down, Time for bed, sleeping sound. I dream the fire burning high, When the night is in the sky. The stars are looking down at me, And have a very special key, That unlocks the inside of me; Now that is how they know me so."
