If I Were To Rule The World

Bryan Jones 2010 (California)



A poem by
Bryan Jones.

If I were in charge of the world
There'd be peace
And animals
And no humans

If I were in charge of the world
I'd add trees
And extinct animals
And extinct plants

If I were in charge of the world
You wouldn't have a life
You wouldn't have anything
You wouldn't even exist

If I were in charge of the world
People would be gone
And never come back
And no one would exist

If I were in charge of the world
There'd be more happiness
And more peace
And much less fighting

If I were in charge of the world
All animals
And air
And water would be clean and healthy.
