Poetry: If I was to die

by Liam

If I was to die,

Who would shed those tears,

That I should cry?

Who would laugh & carefree sing,

An ode to life that happiness brings?

Who would greet each morn,

With grace and ring to feast?

Fill the cup, drain the horn,

Make the mark, light that spark ,

Turn the page, calm the rage.

Yet, I am here…not forlorn !

Warming skin the ray is born,

The mystery of now,

How we each reach,

Into the fore, fulfil the list of do and done

Race from A to B and back

Complete the plan, keep on track

Let those hamsters spin in glee,

We don’t belong in carousels , ourselves

We question , answer , ask & do

We grow, feel, find & flow

We know , there is more,

more, more, more…

So open the door of today

Say; “Sad I would cry,

If I was to die ?”
