The Perfect Place To Be

I looked outside the window car
Hoping to see something beautiful as a star
Instead of seeing a site like that
I saw tons of trash eaten by a rat
I saw kids throwing their garbage here and there
I saw adults smoking with the air that we share

Disappointed, I slept on the way instead
I imagined a place majestic as I laid my head
I dreamt of the sun setting from the horizon,
The sites were magnificent,
As beautiful as they can be, with this little bird
Flying so high and so free

Closing my eyes I saw this wonderful place
Turning my disappointment into a happy face
I saw huge trees and grasses so green
Flowers blooming like I’ve never seen
Mountains so high and the skies so blue
Where the trash is minimum and the littering is few

I took out my camera and I just couldn’t wait
To take photographs of the nature’s current state
I was so happy with what I saw
It is like the people here and the nature follows one law
To care and respect and show your love
To the nature given by our God above

When I opened my eyes
I was back to reality
Something that I wouldn’t call nature’s destiny
The environment taken for granted
Trees were cut down
In a place where they were planted

In my dreams I usually imagine a place
Where birds would fly freely
And nature would have the infinite beauty
Where people care for the nature’s hope
Where every people and creature is happy
That is the perfect place for me to be
