Harmony, a tranquil state, <br />a state of love and care. <br />Where many people want to go, <br />but so few people dare. <br />Of hands across the oceans, <br />lands devoid of war. <br />Where peaceful nations all help out, <br />and no stretch is too far. <br /> <br />For this tranquil state of harmony, <br />is one for which we strive. <br />But 'cus of 'human nature', <br />we won't see it in our lives. <br /> <br />We're all too self destructive, <br />and focussed on 'our needs' <br />While third world countries crumble, <br />are brought down to their knees. <br /> <br />So for me this small word harmony, <br />is oh so far away. <br />But for children of the future, <br />it may just come their way. <br /> <br />Heath Gunn<br /><br />Heath Gunn<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/harmony-a-tranquil-state/
