U – Utopia

U – Utopia

There is a place that I’ve heard of

It has flowers that bloom all year long

Its buildings historic and modern

Build a life that welcomes us all

It’s filled with people all different

In color, sex, shape, size, and belief

Yet they all work together

In harmony as one and in peace

Our differences make us much stronger

As we spend our time trying to hear

What each side of an issue is saying

Without malice or lies to spread fear

And when we’ve heard all the discussion

And a decision has to be made. 

We can look for a spot in the middle

So that each can accept and’s okayed.

This is how we’ll survive and we’ll flourish

For me, there was never a doubt

That this is the place we’ve all heard of.

The one where we all want to be.

Though some say that it’s only a dream.

You can wish all you want.

It’s a lie.

But I know for sure that it’s out there

But to get there you really must try.

Not only to believe its existence

You must also be willing to act

And to listen and share and be helpful

And accept each for who they are

So we all can live with each other

Be productive, and happy, and proud.

Now let us create what we dream of

A Utopia that exists the world ‘round.
