If

If If I could live for 1000 years, I would turn this world around, Change darkness into sunshine and up right every frown! I would blanket the land with laughter using the dew from the trees And shower each person with blessing, too wondrous to believe! If I could live for 1000 years, I would right every wrong, I would bring us all together, and write a new “Preamble” song! Lyrics of equality and justice, would remain as part of the stew, Seasoned with love for our fellow man, not just a selected few! If I could live for 1000 years, I would throw caution to the wind, Do all the things that I’ve never done, and go places I’ve never been! I’d spend but a little time reflecting on negativity or strife, Then in the end I’d thank God, for his favorable blessings of Life! Written By: Sarita A. Milliner © 1/20/16
