Eliminate Poverty

If I were the Almighty and Powerful from above:

Poverty would be eliminated.

No children would ever sleep with a vacant stomach.

No parents would ever become slaves: toiling from dawn to dusk.

Crimes would dwindle.

There would be no need to squander money on prisons because no men  would pilfer or commit petty crimes.

Nobody would ever dominate paupers; cause there wouldn't be any.

No youth would ever sacrifice their education to become the second or third parent.

There would always be a roof over everyone's head.

Maladies wouldn't command the world.

 

Life would be much simple if poverty was eliminated.

The world would be a safe haven:

No more worries.

No more gangs.

No more hunger.

No more needs.

No more drugs.

No more labor.

Every day would be a celebration, a fest, a blessing.

We all could focus on dreams and future.

Merrily, we would independently unite.

We would forget our differences.

Life as we know it, would transform;

It would be our Garden of Eden.

Tears of sorrow would be tears of joys.

Love would suffocate the life out of us.

Health would usurp our mind, our body and our spirit.

Wealth would be everything and nothing.

Everything would change;

If only I had the qualification to Eliminate Poverty.
