If These Things
If the sea was green with envy
Would the sky be blue with sadness?
If the gentle turned outrageous
Would the calm be temperamental?
If a dog began to talk
Would we even understand it?
If a liar told the truth
Would he still be underhanded?
If the love we have for others
Could be matched and reciprocated
Would we overflow with kindness?
Become finer and sophisticated?
If all wars were erased from history
Would the World become a better one?
Or would someone find a reason
To cause chaos and start another one?
If these things?
Would these things?
If these things?
