If

IF…

If I were a silver moonbeam,
I’d shine upon the lake
And dance between the newborn leaves 
Without a single break!

If I were a smile upon a face,
My width would never cease
I’d spread indeed with splendid grace
And many hearts I’d please!

If I were just as I am now,
I’d try to be the Best
And priceless qualities endow
To face life brave through every test!
