If only,if....

If only if, we didn’t cry,
when someone poked us in the eye.

If only if, we didn’t weep,
when someone hurt us really deep.

If only if, we used our brains,
maybe we would save some pains.

If only if, we wore a smile,
then we’d be happy all the while.

If only if, we tried our best,
we’d be successful in each test.

If only if, we found a home,
then we would never have to roam.

If only if, we loved this life,
then we’d be free from cares and strife.

If only if, we played our part,
and treated others with our heart.

If only if, the world was one,
with hate and prejudice all gone.

Then all mankind would get along,
.....if only ‘all’ would sing this song.

Ivor G Davies


The moment created this second, is a  moment that's going to last.
It lives the full spectrum of time, the future, the present and past.

A very thought provoking poem that stirs
the imagination very smoothly,  thank you.

If only some one would steal all our reasons for working and living we could all just die in peace.

When I poke someone in the eye I expect them to cry (or poke back)

Unfortunately when I study hard for an exam I dont always "expect" to pass.... thats half the fun....

What are the words to that song again "Clone a Sheep" Baaa Baaa  Baaa Baaa
