Promised land

The sun burns hot across this world, 

the heat haze shimmers to reveal flags unfurled

far on the horizon I can  see

a legion of people heading towards me.

like a mirage I see their resplendent colours

hear the songs and slogans they holla.

A distant cry a low rumbling roar

these people are in search of more

a new promised land

a brand new start where they will live life from the heart. 

Faces smiling with expectations 

voices full of exhilaration

in search of the new paradigm

looking for a world better than this

where all actions emanate from within

moral in thought but casting away all mortal sin

for this new world will be guilt free

where gender colour or beliefs

Won’t see you descrimated or hurt

cast aside or even worse 

persecuted or even killed

this will be a place without such ills.

A place of love, compassion and peace

united in a single belief

that we are one humanity

turning our backs on hatred, violence, war and greed

knowing there is enough for all

as long as we don’t try and horde and store

more than we need for too much is a waste

this will make this a unified state

of sharing and caring and transcendence. 

Where we trust each other and all are free.
