I wonder...A Poem by ElsieAs I look out upon the field of wheat I wonder how it would be to feel the wind Softly blowing through my hair Having nothing to worry about No place to be When the sun hits us just right we look like gold Just swaying back and fourth I wonder what it would be like to be the largest bird Soaring through the air Taking everything around me Taking my time to grab my prey Having people look at me in aw How graceful I could be I wonder what it would be like to be a wolf Having a pack that looks after each other Knowing where you stand in the pack Not having to worry about anything Only have to follow the laws of the pack Listening to the Alpha wolves How great would that be What would it be like to be a horse Being able to be care free Grazing on the grass Taking my time everywhere I go Being cared for by humans What would it be like to be prey Knowing you're being hunted down All the thoughts racing through your mind Thinking on the best way to escape I wonder what it would be like to be a Grizzly Bear No way to be prey by the wild animals Wondering around at my own pace Sleeping through the long winters Not having to follow anyone's rules I wonder what it would be like to be a human Who lives off the land Never taking more than I need Using everything I get Never letting anything go to waste Respecting mother nature the way it should be What would the world be like without any laws The crimes being over the top People afraid to leave their homes Not wanting to bring children into the world The body count going up by millions and billions Who would want to live in a world like that What would it be like to never have wars again Everyone working together for the common good No one is higher on the line of progress then another If one person makes progress then we all do If on person struggles then we all struggle What would it be like to never feel pain To always feel good To feel sad only when someone (including pets) pass away To be able to do everything you ever dreamed of doing What would it be like to be immortal To never have to die again Being able to see the whole world Doing anything and everything we want to do Never having to worry about not finishing your bucket list I wonder who would ever be willing to have this happen Since over time we would run out of resources We would get board over time of seeing everything Some might wish for death That making one simple wish might end up With millions and billions of people upset We need to face it head first The differences in our lives help keep us going forward Keeps us want to get more It drives us to work harder To reach our goals © 2015 Elsie |
