If I

If I had five minutes. 
To write about my life, I’m in it. 
My five minutes make my mind tick. 
If I had five minutes, 
To be joyful, I would sing it. 
I would write about some clouds. 
I would write really LOUD!
I would write about what I want. 
I might even change my font. 

Minutes…hours…
Five minutes, to share my powers. 
I had five minutes. 
It is past my time to win it. 
But what if I had more…
Than five minutes galore. 
So I will finish my poem, then write another.
Writing, no matter the time or whether, 
Or not. 
I will never let myself rot. 

If I had more than five minutes…
I would get cozy when I sit. 

I had. 
I’m glad.
