Not much to say for this one but I have written a children's poem for a change.
Thanks for reading - Adele
What if?
What if I were a bird?
Would my fear of heights
inhibit me?
Would I sit on a branch
In a trance
Until a cat climbed up and
murdered me?
What if I were a mole?
Would my claustrophobia cause
me stress?
And would the lack of Vitamin
D
Have an adverse effect on me?
What if I was a chimpanzee?
Would my arthritic finger
cripple me?
Would I swing through the
trees
But tumble down
And break my back on the
stony ground?
What if I was a chameleon?
Would my colour blindness be
cause for concern?
Would my camouflage fail
Exposing me
To predators who’d make a
meal of me?
What if I was a hippopotamus?
Would my hydrophobia be
disastrous?
If I couldn’t wallow – down
in the hollow
I doubt that a mate would
follow me.
But I am a human being you
see
And my defects have little
effect on me.
I may not be perfect
But I’ll survive.
I am just grateful to be
alive.
