What if

What if we were free?
Like birds who flew 
Far out over bluest seas...
What if we were wild?
Like bears who slept
In dens in frozen lands...
What if we could climb?
Like monkeys who screech
As they fly through the trees...
What if we were still?
Like chameleons walking
Out in the desert hills...
What if we were made?
Like the wilderness we see
Far into the mind's eye...
What if peace was forever?
Like it was meant to be
Deep below a raging river...
Ah...what if life was good?
Like you know it should be
What if? What if? What if?
