What if…

The only color was grey?
Would we then be able
To turn and walk away?

What if…

Words did hurt?
Would the sticks and stones
Then be left in the dirt?

What if.…

Pigs COULD fly?
Would we then follow through
With what was so easily denied?

What if….

We looked at the world
With a child’s eyes opened wide
Would we then understand
When they always ask

Why?
