Your poem can be looked at in different ways and I think may provoke fundamentally diferent emotions. Whatever, you write in a very caring and sympathetic way. Also, this is well rhymed as always.

Yes, not to mention all the people killed in wars who were supposed to be born, have we killed the person who could free us from this bondage, that we are stuck to this earth and can't get off of it?

The world of 'what if' can destroy if anyone dwells there too long. Beautiful but sad write. Too many never even get a chance to ask 'what if' . . . and the world suffers for our folly of playing God.

Jack, a what if poem is prevelant in all our lives. It is sad because it is full of regreat. Very few climb to the zenith. Make the lasting contribution that they think they could have made. This is a poem about failure and not success. And rising to the zenith in life is not always good.
Some rise to the zenith with very bad results. Like Hitler, and the dictators.
Hitler, rose and conquered almost all the world. His natural position was a paper hanger. Bill

Touching. Reminds me of a friend of mine who just lost a child. I hear her asking these questions every day. If you don't mind, I will send your link to her to read. This is beautiful and thoughtful.

Jack ,
This is a wonderful write.
"Perhaps things would be different,
If we could all see in advance.
The many things you may have done,
If you had only had the chance."

Such is the wonderment of fantasy. Unfortunately reality is not so wonderful at times. I liked the poem I just have problems with the word "if."

Sometimes I wonder too, but in my case I don't think it would make much difference. perhaps I wouldn't want it to be much different. I have so many blessings to count now and life is good to me.
