Three wishes

If I ever had three wishes
I wouldn't wish for riches,
I wouldn't wish for fame
Cause that wouldn’t be my aim.

I'd wish to find the answer
To the deadly problem cancer
Because children everywhere
Shouldn't have to live with such fear.

If I ever had the power
For even just one hour
I would banish hunger and famine,
I’d order world leaders to seriously examine
Their policies and fund less war, more peace,
Then all the crimes and war would cease.

If there were no war, no famine, no illness,
The world would be filled with such happiness.
Our children could live and play without fear,
And parents wouldn’t have to shed a single tear.
Honesty, peace, and love would reign supreme.
That, my friends, is my everlasting dream!
