If


If mortals were more than mortal
If we were not limited to Earth's portals
If the celestial could live and never die
If the first sound of babies was not a cry
If death's doors were locked and never opened
If words of mortals without love were never spoken
If there were no tears of grief, of pain, of horror
If every teardrop was ushered with no taste of sorrow
If there were no fears of darkness nor threat of men
If hopes and dreams could never be dashed or doomed
If lions and lambs, Larry and Sam, could live in peace 
If jungled beasts did not kill each other for a feast
If birds of prey could spend more time in flight and play                                                                                                        If only Adam and Eve had obeyed The Lord and never sinned
