I will because I can, I can because I want to, I want to becasue you said I couldn't.


In My World,
the grass is greener,
on my side.
There are,
enough worms,
for every bird.
In My World,
Everyone's,
a friend,
Nobody's
in need.
The mice
will play,
Whether the cat,
is here or not.
In My World.
Good things,
don't come to an end.
War,
is peaceful.
Rome,
wasn't built in a day
and neither,
was My World.

I liked how almost blunt this seemed while incorporating those different sayings. It took a lot of cliches and put a twist on them. My only critique is be careful with punctuation, there seem to be a few extra commas that created an awkward pause when I was reading

I was actually listening to the Louis Armstrong song at the time. I opersonally, can't stand the song because it reminded me of  my grandfather. Then I realized that my world would have him, and this came.

What a wonderful world! (No allusion to Louis Armstrong initially intended). It is a very cleverly written blend of popular sayings and your own person. Great job!
