I look around at the world today,
And I find that there is much decay.
I see many people on the streets,
They deserve a home, and something to eat.
I notice people, angry and mad,
Who only need love, so they can feel glad.
There is hate and fear and lots of war,
And I just can’t take it anymore.

I look around at the world today,
And I find that there is much decay.
Wait! There’s something wrong with that line,
Something that just doesn’t seem fine.
After all there is much good in the world,
When I thought of that, it all unfurled.
I opened up to a world of love,
Where good things don’t have to come from above.

I look around at the world today,
And I find that there is much to say.
I have friends and family to help me through,
And I can find love when things are askew.
When people are in need, some will intervene,
To get them out of their rough ravine.
So now I know that the world today,
Is full of love, and full of play.
This poem is about thinking positively, and not dwelling on the bad things in life. There is lots of good causes and feelings in the world, you just have to look for them.
