If in the Year Two-Thousasnd,Two,
I had the power to make dreams come true
RESPECT would be top Priority,
This would rid us of Violence, you see!

"KINDNESS TO ALL," as our Major Goal,
Lift up the fallen, seek to make whole.
Unselishly seek the Common Good,
With each doing what the can and should.

Striving for PEACE in all that we do,
At Home, at Work, among Nations, too
"LIVE AND LET LIVE," through God's Grace find JOY,
Contentment to all through LOVE's employ.

Working with haste to o'ercome the past,
Make it a "has been" that just won't last.
Uprooting evil, sowing Good Seed,
Growing a Great Year, without the weeds!

Thus showing for all a Better Way,
Letting God be our Hope and Stay
In Joyful SERVICE, Purpose to find,
Heaven on earth, at least in our minds!

Now if everyone would think this way,
Our world would be turned from night to Day.
It would be worth it, all that we do,
For the sake of Two-Thousand and Two!


  [It doesn't have to be just a dream-
       let's each do our part
      toward this great scheme.]

Thank you, for the wonderfully peaceful poem. May this wish become the reality.

May the ripple of LOVE
become the wave of PEACE
