If I Were Small

by Erin Elizabeth Kelly-Moen — Read all 1,670 poems by Erin Elizabeth Kelly-Moen

Monday, October 9, 2006

If I were small,
Would I look to largeness
To guide me?

If I were big,
Would I not care at all
About smallness?

If I were weak,
Would I try, or die, because
Of involvement?

If I were strong,
Would I die, inside, because
Of denouement?

If I were Void,
Would I look to Space
To fill me?

If I were All,
Would I even care of largeness,
And smallness?

If I were big,
Would I look to smallness
To guide me?

If I were small,
Would I not care at all
About largeness?

If I were strong,
Would I lie, inside, because
Of dissolvements?

If I were weak,
Would I die, or try, because
Of pronouncements?

If I were All,
Would I even care of smallness,
And largeness?

If I were Void,
Would I look to God
To fill me?

Back and forth with simple questions that teeter
Difficult answers that tear at the reader
A close-to-the-heart poem that brings out a self-examination
If I'm not being filled . . . . .
Then I must be leaking somewhere!
Will I find?
If I do. . . .
Then will I repair?
Yes, with God's love and care.

If I were you, Ms. Moen ... I would immediately make myself a french vanilla with hot fudge sundae, (it would fill the void) and then I would begin contemplating the cilia on a protozoan and consider, seriously, or irreverently, the ramifications of dying then red in an act of defiance towards North Koreas nuclear testing.

I like you Erin ... you fire my synapses.

This. Is powerful! Questions that sometimes must be asked...and I love the last one in particular. :) Yes is my answer to that one, because He does!

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.
