Communism?

I've always had very wavering views on communism, what I was lead to believe and how I feel. Communism a sociopolitical movement that aims for a classless and stateless society structured upon common ownership of the means of production, free access to articles of consumption, and the end of wage labour and private property in the means of production and real estate. Is there something wrong with me when I say this sounds ideal? I know, I'm not clueless. Plenty of attempts to successfully run a communist country have been very unsuccessful. Still, seems to me like a beautiful idea. Everyone working for what the love, pushed by intrinsic motivation. No one is poor or rich. Each assigned a home to live in, every night food on the table and clothes to wear. All are educated and employed.
