Predictions show that immortality for humans may be reached as soon as 2050. Ample clean energy will abound. Clean drinking water and food in abundance will become available. Poverty and hunger will be eliminated. Medical, physical and mental problems will easily be detected and corrected. Incentives will have to be made to give people purpose in life, especially physical activity when physical work is no longer needed. All we have to do to make it happen is to be tolerant, understanding and kind rather than mean to one another.

Utopia Bound


Time to talk about what people fear,
it's coming very soon, but not next year.

Still, it is coming, and we must prepare,
for the world is changing and we are there.

The cyber revolution has just begun,
computers and software have already won.

Printers and robots are making our things,
growing our crops, creating life's blings.

Cancer and diseases will soon be gone,
genetic therapies will make life healthy and long.

Seven billion souls inhabit the planet,
exponentially out of control, time to plan it.

Survival of the fittest has made us great,
sorting the unfit has been bloody with hate.

Time to realize that we are all in the same boat,
it is sink or swim, before it's too late.

It is totally unnecessary for the few to have all,
requiring the rest to have little, suffer and fall.

We all know what is good; we know what is right,
we solve very few problems when we fuss and fight.

What we need is understanding that everyone needs a chance,
and if they don't succeed, they still need to prance.

Why should we tolerate making people suffer in pain,
when we have the power to make them whole again.

Science cannot solve all of our problems just yet,
but old hatreds need to die, if we are to get where we'll get.

We are more alike than we are different; it's not too late.
honoring those differences will make us great.

To leave this planet in its pristine glory.
Seek out the stars, writing a whole new story.

Ron, I'd be 100 in 2050, and with new body parts that they will most definitely will be able to supply...

Always,

I KNOW THAT SCIENCE CANNOT SOLVE ANY OF OUR PROBLEMS BECAUSE OUR PROBLEMS ARE NOT SCIENTIFIC BUT COMPLETELY SPIRITUAL. AND SINCE NO MAN KNOWS THE DAY NOR THE HOUR OF OUR DELIVERANCE FROM THIS DECAYING PLACE, I CAN ONLY LOOK FORWARD TO THE SOON APPEARING OF THAT 'PERFECT' PLACE OF EXISTENCE, AS YOU DO...UTOPIA, THE NEW HEAVEN AND THE NEW EARTH. UNTIL THEN...WE WAIT, AS FAITHFULLY AS WE CAN. THANKS FOR SHARING. LOVE, BLESSINGS AND FAITH...JOYCE * HIS INSPIRATIONS

Ending hate is a noble mission. We can start by eliminating religious superstitions. This was a great write,

Great poem Ron, and what made us great as a nation, we must revisit that! Our founding fathers understood that, all of us have something good to contribute to the whole! Thank you, brother. Peace!!!

And then there may be people like us who are members of AuthorsDen, using it as their incentive to give purpose to life. Your poem is very thought-provoking, and it is well written.

Very comprehensive, Ron and thought provoking. I think the next frontier is re-configuring who owns information. If we can improve the answer to that question, answers to others mat emerge, At least that would be a starting point.

The time to start honoring differences is now. That would be a step in the right direction for attaining the utopian dream.

A cornucopia of wisdom encapsulated within these rhythmic, rhyming verses. Very well expressed. No doubt utopia is there in the dreamy mist for people to invoke and contemplate, but it is unlikely that it will ever materialize in "this world", human nature being what it is. It's not the survival of the fittest; it's the survival of the best.

Same old story (though well told) of having to leave Utopia (Eden) because it will be too wonderful, unlike the sterile stars.

A very wise poem which gives us contemplation to ensure we don't be the one who let's the planet down.
