If He Was Not

If man was not intelligent, the whole world would not have had
Knowledge or culture, writings or books
It would have been a large green forest with mountains and fields
and the man with a empty day.

Maybe, there would not have been evil, war or competition,
Black and white would have lived together as friends.
There would not have been rich or poor,
Knights, princes and kings, merciless monarch and rulers.

Life would have been peaceful, and the man would have lived happy,
Maybe if man was not intelligent
Treachery and maliciousness
would have never been found on this whole world.
