If I

If I could fly, I would see the world. Go to places I want to travel to, see it all from above. I could come and visit with you, we could have a cup of tea with cookies. If I could swim, and live in the oceans blue. I would make friends, with the fishes like you. We could swim for miles, under the sky and white clouds. If I could dream all day, I would dream of you and me. Life would be so very perfect, sitting on your knee. If I, I guess it will not come true. So here I am, just living my life as I do.

If I, how many times have we all thought this way - it is a dream you follow, a path of desire for nature, and a passion for life, carry on thinking this way and you will slide down a rainbow and find the pot of gold Paul, a fun poem! Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.
