If I could look into forever
what wonders would I see
would my heart rejoice and sing
in this revealed eternity

Would there be skies of asure blue
and warm endless sunny days
would rainbows leap across the clouds
in bold pastel displays

Would songbirds trill sweet harmony
in deep meadows lushly green
would children play and laugh and dance
while parents smile and preen

Would all the countless tears and sobs
of a billion broken hearts
be stilled and comforted at last
as pain and suffering departs

If I could look into forever
dare I dream that this could be
that my soul be filled with wonderment
of the beauty that I see

That men of every race and creed
stand together hand in hand
and an everlasting peace preside
throughout this happy land

the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep, and many miles to go before I sleep...Frost

Your poem is lovely and optimistic and perhaps if we could look to forever that is what we would see. God was kind to hide the future from us or we would not be able to make our day to day struggle in the now. Love, Joyce

I love these thoughts. Very nice, and it's too bad the whole world couldn't make this their motto for life! I wonder what the world would be like, for real? I think if we knew the future we would be a slave to change it. We would be obsessed to change it if there was anything in it negative. It would consume our time.
Love,

I love this positive side of which you've written.

Lovely poem.
I am sure that this is the dream of a hundred nations currently being bombed and invaded right at this moment. I too have the same dream, pegasus, that one day there will exist a world without hatred, greed and suffering.
This is my poem of the week!

(big hugggsssssss) I believe everyone has contemplated of this plan, but sadly many have false and ignorant impressions on what exactly creates peace when it simply isn't a complicated answer whatsoever! (sad sigh) I too hope that everyone can follow thir "middle way" and seek Nirvana and all greed, gluttony, and avarice behavior can vanish and the whole capitalistic disease can be cured by universal charity, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet friend, thank you for sharing!

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
