Perfect World

From mind to mind Let us try to find A common ground With a sweet sound The sweetest scent Seems to be god sent A place where pain ignores The perfect world everyone adores No need to take happy pills From crowded window sills No shrinks telling you lies The clearest of earthly skies A feeling of peace and tranquility No need for chemical stability A life full of joy and happy days Pain won’t know of these ways

My Critique

Very nice...Sounds like it could affect quite a few readers..."A feeling of peace and tranquility No need for chemical stability" Perhaps this should be given to those who feel the need to medicate their lives...Nicely done great job!

Common ground

harmony,being on the same page and not arguing over the book.To think outside the box together. Sounds good who is buying coffee(I got the first round of tea). In ink, David
