What a brilliant notion for a poem, this was a great message that was clearly put across, some good alliteration, and a great flow, I enjoyed it

Comment from mfowler
Superman, for me, has always trumped Batman, the Green Hornet, and even Capt. America. Any man with his skill set, and values, who can fool close friends about his identity with a pair of thick framed glasses, is the one who could carry out your ambitious agenda.I loved your idea of locking the leaders in a room until they come out with peace in mind. Your poem fits the bill very well, and I hope Superman prevails. He usually does.

Thank you my friend for your wonderful review and rating, I really appreciate it. As you said, Superman will always prevail. It's just that we can't find him when his services are really needed (ha). Take care of yourself. Bill

Pity/guilty -- Not a rhyme. Life has shown us one country that could have solved the world troubles, but it has failed. This is very well written. Good luck in your contest.

Thanks Charlie for your review and suggestion. Pity/guilty is what Webster's calls a "near rhyme". Have a good day Charlie. Bill

You're welcome, Bill. Charlie
Comment from Muffins
Your rhymes are rich. The theme is magical, expressive and
magnificent because 95 percent of the population who use those super powers to do all the things listed in your poem. But as you know how humans beings can get, there will be that 5 percent who will use those powers for selfish reasons. Wonderful work.

Comment from Petriesan
I could climb on my soap box about what this poem says to me about the varying visions of God people hold, but I won;t because of the season we area now it.
But, I cannot fully resist: If we were God for a year, what would we do differently?
Just used my last six of the week. Sorry

Thank you very much my friend for your nice comments, I appreciate it very much. You make a very good point about being God for a year and what we would do differently. I'll keep that in mind the next contest. Have a great day. Bill
Comment from rouskin
I would gather all the world leaders,
put them together, then lock the door
Keep them there until they agreed,
there would never be another war
I wish you could do that Best of luck in the contest
Memorable entry
Blessings,Rouskin

Excellent poem. I wish you had those super powers too. My favorite verse was :

put them together, then lock the door
Keep them there until they agreed,
there would never be another war
Well done and good luck in the contest.

Comment from Dorothy Farrell
Four stanzas in abcb rhyme form with some near rhyme. You have chosen the fictional character, Superman for your poem. Well written though the lines do not flow easily. Nevertheless it is well written with some good resolutions if you had Superman's powers. Good luck in the contest. Regards Dorothy

I love your wondrous super power...not to do housework....but to do good..
Yay
James 1:27
Religion that is pure and undefiled before God, the Father, is this: to visit orphans and widows in their affliction, and to keep oneself unstained from the world.
Well done
God bless
