A Fantasy of Love

If I could script the fantasy of my own life to be
                                 with every word to find its home in my reality  
At first, I’d win the love, of course, in every drama’s plot
               and win the contest, win the prize, I’d rather win than not

I’d make the finest chocolates and I’d bake the finest cakes  
        I’d climb the highest mountains because I’d have what it takes
I’d please the mirror everyday with ample time to spare
                       for it would not take any time to style the finest hair

I’d eat of every noble plate from every land I find
                Yes, I could have it all and I could even change my mind
I’d sleep till noon, then have a drink with millions in the bank
       I’d swim and drive and ride my horse with no one else to thank

It’s then, that selfish thoughts of such an egotistic life
                           begin to pale in face of other’s monumental strife
So, how to end this fantasy with satisfaction spent
                     I’d write a final chapter and explain just what I meant

Love for all, the prize I’d seek with all to love me too
               and hunger banished from the world, disease to bid adieu
With everyone as beautiful and they could only be
                   with comforts of a well lived life for all the world to see
