I want to write a piece of scripture so pure and full of beauty

That when read it becomes what I wish it to be.

A scripture speaking of such utter paradise

That all evil would fall to one knee.

A place where I'd wish upon a star

To a place where trouble melts like lemon drops,

Far above the chi-meny-tops.

Where dreams come true, for me and you.

Where shaking hands and saying "How do you do"

Truly means "I love you"

A place where one could snatch up a child

With the parents standing near

Tickle her 'till she smiled

The parents laughing in cheer

A place where you are not a monster,

Not a villain in disguise

A mask of many lies

Covering your many faces, attempting to get one prize

No, in this paradise there is truth in all eyes

Every hidden corner is a place of magical peace,

A world within a world of love.

If only the blind could see,

The deaf could hear,

Let the breathless breath.

"We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars." Oscar Wilde
