Contingencies
If words of hope can help the weak
To conquer fear -- Let speakers speak.
If helpful hearts are sensitive
To others' needs -- Let givers give.
If poets' words can minds excite
And free a soul -- Let writers write.
If songs can be encouraging
To youthful dreams -- Let singers sing.
If things are not just what they seem
When day is done -- Let dreamers dream.
If wings give flight and free the dove
From earthly cares -- Let lovers love.
If in your eyes someday I see
A hope of love -- Then let it be.
