Poem Tittle: If

If my problems were packed in a room,
I would sweep them away swiftly with a broom.
If all my thoughts were inspired by God,
I would move mountains with just a word.

If I must leave a righteous life,
I must first marry a virtuous wife.
If my kids still wonder like me after I die,
Then my legacy as a father was a lie.

If all humans were to practice what they preach,
Then there wouldn’t be bodies for surgeons to stitch.
If love were really a common commodity,
Then there would be tranquility & harmony in my community.

So when I wake up tomorrow morning to a bright sunshine,
I would rejoice for my last dream was the sign.

@onenecha,

I love that you wrote in verse (my style too). You show great promise. There's a few language errors to clean up but hey, it's Day 1, right?

Great job. We'll talk again soon.

Thanks for your observation man. I really appreciate it. Think I should use my mother tongue sometime in this challenge.

In peace, this is how we want to live. Greetings. I invite you to read my poem, thank you.
