In a perfect world little kids wouldn't be starving
Grown men and women wouldn't be standing on the corner with a cup asking for a quarter
Saudi Arabian women wouldn't be forced to marry at age eleven
In a perfect world everyone would be equal
Men wouldn't beat on their wives for no apparent reason
Gay's wouldn't be discriminated against because they like the same sex
In a perfect world you wouldn't find teenagers comiting suicide
There would be no need to take your life away, if everyone were happy
Parents wouldn't worry about their child being depressed
In a perfect world global warming wouldn't be destroying our planet
People would be more worryied about our planet dying
We would understand that if we don't do something now our world will be history
In a perfect world we wouldn't be living in reality
But the facts are there right in front of us just waiting to be seen
If something doesn't get done soon, we might never get out of this tragedy

Don't we all wish for a perfect world? You have highlighted some really important things there. This is definitely something to think about.. There are a couple of spelling mistakes which I would edit as they jump out and spoil the flow.
Thanks so much for entering and best of luck in the contest... x -

I dream of a perfect world, atleast one where everything is not about power of some kind and killing. This is a beautiful write filled with the wishes and dreams of a young girl who cares deeply about the things going on around her. Awesome write kid!
