This is a wonderful dream that I hope comes true. Sadly though, I really doubt it. I loved this well rhymed poem and appreciate the sentiment. Thanks for sharing. :)

This is a good entry in the rhyming contest. Your rhyme scheme was consistent throughout. The message of hope in your poem is shared by me and many others. There is for sure nothing wrong with wishing for something better. Your font size could be a bit larger, and it would be great in one of the shades of green in your visual. Good luck in the contest.

"My Dream of Utopia"
This is a Rhyming Contest Entry rich in Theme and Imagery.
It also, read well and flowed well with no Grammar Issues.

The Adjective and Objective Contents were both Excellent and Exceptional while Descriptive Measures Aligned Perfectly.
Good luck with this one.

Very nicely done. If only...

This line has issues:
And bitterness,a word
(No need for the comma, but if you keep it you still need a space)

Good work. I shall see you on the field of linguisting battle!
