Utopia

NafisaSB

Where might is not always right

And people can exist without fright

Where the poor have at least daily bread

And the under nourished are properly fed

Where plastic is not thrown in lakes and streams

Where people have a chance to fulfil their dreams

Where each man is treated in an equal way

And caste does not hold full sway

Where education is free for one and all

And medication freely available on call

Where progress is made in all the fields

And the hard work quickly results yields

Where jobs are not restricted for a select few

And for necessities in life, there is no queue

Where Nature thrives in all its beauty

And workers properly perform their duty

Where the old are given a place of pride

And they are not taken for a ride

Where transparency in dealings is to be found

And learning starts from the ground

Where new gen has the guts to dare

And people continue to care and share

Should we not strive hand in hand

To create such a UTOPIA for our land?

                  Utopia is held by the rich, the crumbs for the poor.
                  When you actually think about it, nothing has changed over thousands of years, and look how far humans have come.
                  We're a race heading for extinction.
                  Mind you, it will be great for the rest of the animal kingdom.

                    you may be accurate in your comments, but I Still hope for a better world with at least some of my dreams realized while I am alive..

                    • Paul Bell

                      Always believe in your dreams.

                      • NafisaSB

                        yes I do, especially those that are positive...
                        have a good weekend
