Not A Small World After All Poem by Francis Duggan

It surely is not a small World after all
The World that we live in is anything but small
There is not one living person who has been to everywhere
Every town, village and city in the big World out there
Though in many towns and villages and cities i have been
So little of the World i can claim to have seen
And so many Countries i never will see
The saying of a small World just a saying would you not agree
The big World out there is a big World indeed
And in a lifetime to see all of it anyone could not hope to succeed
In the big World out there the roadways go to places far and wide
To cities and towns and villages in every countryside
It is a small World is a saying i recall
But the World we live in it is far from small.
