The world unfolds, a tapestry vast,
Woven with threads of ages past.
From mountain peaks that pierce the blue,
To ocean depths, a shimmering hue.
A tapestry of vibrant green,
Where life takes root, a vibrant scene.
Forests whisper ancient lore,
While deserts hold secrets galore.
Cities rise, a concrete maze,
A human hum in sunlit haze.
Progress marches, fast and bold,
A story yet to be unfold.
But shadows lurk, a somber shade,
Where wounds of conflict are displayed.
Inequality's harsh, bitter sting,
A discordant note, the world does sing.
Yet hope remains, a fragile spark,
In every child's bright, hopeful arc.
A chance to mend, to heal, to grow,
To build a future, let compassion flow.
So let us gaze upon the whole,
This wondrous, fragile, beating soul,
And strive to make this world anew,
A place of peace, for me and you.
