What an honor!
What If …
What if war was a warm wreathe
Filled with colors that please?
What if snow’s icy feel was velvety
Warm and inspires healing coldly?
What if humanity hummed a hymn
Filled with hope, harmony haunting grim?
What if there is only acceptance,
Understanding, friendship, peace?
What if your entourage were supportive
And fulfilled its quotient of depression’s curative?
What if the sky and seas became
One, melding colors, baking but grim?
What if the mountains and valleys
Came together in a crash of ash and clays?
What if the living and dead walk
The earth together, what will they about talk?
What if you’re born an adult, regress
Into babyhood, then die as a baby’s bless?
What if black were white, and white
Were black, how would dichotomy be a plight?
What if time leapt back to lack technology,
Would humanity still have posterity?
