I look through to see
how blue it can be
with no cars on the street,
when the city can breathe,

when the wings in the sky
are on birds, bees and flies,
and the ocean is clear
and the hills seem so near.

Our neighbours are scared,
attend them with care,
help those who have lost,
share the social cost.

Let’s look out with love
beyond and above
the growth of economies
to different realities.

This could be our chance
to design, to enhance
the best way to thrive,
a new system for life.
