Sometimes we look back and wonder what if, it is a futile effort I know but perhaps it is what we need to get past what is.........

I Wonder If…


 


If we had met another day,


another place,


another time


 


Would we have kissed sweeter,


Would we have touched neater,


Would I have asked you to be mine


 


Would the sun have shone brighter,


Would my steps have been lighter


Would the roses smell sweeter with time


 


Would our eyes have glowed brighter,


Would we have held our hands tighter


Would the stars above us still shine


 


Would the bells have rung louder


Would we have gathered at the alter


Would we have shared forever so fine


 


If we had met another day,


another place,


another time…

I have learned not to dwell in the 'what ifs' but to cherish the 'what is'...)

if was was meant to be it would have been so ... that, we must never lose perspective of ... though it is an intriguing thought to wonder about even if it plays games with our hearts ...

Fee,
I think all of us at one time or another as asked this question. Life is full of 'what ifs'. One will never know what would have happened had we taken a different turn in the road. Excellent write.

Many blessings,

It's the I Wonder What If's that can drive us all out of our minds. I often ask myself the same question. We need to Wonder What If in order to keep our mind going and our dreams alive. There are always second chances. Another fabulous write, Fee.

Hm, this can be attributed to so many life choices I think. At the fork in the road would we still take the same direction, with hindsight?... perhaps not, but the hands of time will always move forward so I tend to agree with Elizabeth on this one. You've left me pondering Fee. Great theme here. Hugs Panda :)

I somehow believe we get to where we should be and with who we should be with. Lessons learned, wisdom gained. "What if" and "if only" belongs in the past as those lessons learned.
It is the future plans that our hearts reach for in the end.

Good writing.

Oh Felix, now you have everyone wondering, what if's, as I am sure we have all let this thought run through our mind at one time and probably a thousand more. Thank you.

Love your Cuz, Rose XOXO

What if's are part of everyone's thoughts at one time. In saying this I admit to them myself. I have a poem that ends this way
"Sometimes what if's come to take my heart away."

Love,
Susan

I think we all have "what if" moment or the "if only" moments I have. If only they hadn't done what they did we would have stayed together. As I think back on that I have to think that I would have been stuck in still a not good situation. The things they did were what gave me reasons to end a relationship that really wasn't worth staying in for other reasons. Food for thought this morning. A good write. Lady J

........what if........ and someone goes away, or we are lucky enough that we don't need to ask it.
Tribulation of one winning 99% of the jackpot and still asking itself, what if...
Or, two ships passing in the night without seeing each other.

The world is filled with "If Onlys." We may never know: the kisses might have been sweeter, but then again, you may have been kissing a *cringe* scorpion...a thought provoking poem, excellently penned.
