Cobus Du Toit Poet Rhyme

If I Could Stop the World

If I could stop the world from turning
I could stop people from only earning
If I could halt the jealous sea
Just imagine what we could be

If I could stop the clock and it's hands
I could stop the world's demands
If I could stop the wheel that is spinning
I could stop our wallets from thinning

If I could stop all the bad dates
Maybe you would bid higher stakes
If I could end all our issues
Maybe we would need less tissues

So would you stay with me
for all of eternity

Until time resumes
Until death consumes

Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Have a blessed New Year.
