“IF” Poem
"Sitting
looking out the windows of yesterday’s past, I wondered what if, IF came too
soon?
I
wondered what the pathway of my life would be like if I had taken another road
on the highway that life was offering me?
Looking out the windows of the past
is reminiscent of looking at the gateways of one’s soul.
With passion, so bright and life
looking, so dull I wondered if, IF came too late?
Why do we assume?
As the wind blows across the sandy
beaches the sand never wishes to run. For it knows that the winds are coming
but like a tree taken by the storm, it must always remain still until the end. I
wondered if ,IF came to soon?
I wondered did we give life a fair chance
to dance with grace. I wondered did we give time the needed space to create
deep within us something great?
I wondered did I really allow my mind to run
free with the time I was given or if, the IF’s that stopped, so many of us
came too soon or far too late?
But why do we assume?
I let these mystical mysteries
create walls inside of me. Walls that I could not see, but glass ceilings I came
to close to touch. Again when I say IF that is a mystery.
Many have allowed it
to bring to a halt all of their hopes and dreams. Deep down inside there was
always that IF that kept mankind from realizing the dream of a King and Queen.
I
wondered if, IF came too soon or far too late.
That IF is the
disgraceful uninvited dinner guest that had far too much to drink and way too
much to say but no one put him in his place. 20 people set at the formal dining room
table looking at the spectacle, but no one had the boldness to correct his misbehavior
and issues from the past.
When a missed opportunity happens I
wondered if, the two letter word called IF caused us to close the door on this
case far too soon or far too late?
Again, why must we still assume?
Did you do
all that you could do or did you simply allow a two letter word IF to become
the master of your destiny?
At last I sit looking out the painful windows of
the past and I wonder if I allowed my biggest enemy IF to steal the purpose and
destiny that was always meant for me?" The End
My friends there is no time to
assume. Don’t allow the spirit of IF to hold you back any longer. The time is
now to break free and dare to be more than you ever thought you could be.
