Utopia, you ask?
Why to me it seems
Where kind words float on the backs of dreams
And smiles lap up laughing tears
Time no longer counts in years
Where angst and sorrow are not known
And silence is a resting zone
And no one wants but neither needs
No hidden secrets to deceive
An atmosphere completely filled
With my heart’s desired thrill
No war nor selfish meander sought
No suspicious evil thought
Can dare seep in as to defile
Once done, now evermore exiled
Upon this earth where mortal be
I can only long to see
My heaven where my promise lies
Beyond all galaxies and skies
Until then with His Spirit I do my best
To live at peace with all the rest
