If

If I Could Be

If I could be the Sun for a day …
Will I shine as bright?

If I could be a seed for a day …
Will I be as patient?

If I could be the first morning rain of Spring …
Will I be as humble?

If I could be the wind for a day …
Will I sing songs from the sky?

If I could be fire for a day …
Will I be the warmth of a loving home?

If I could be the Earth for a day …
Will I be as loving and forgiving?

If I could be the Universe for a day …
Will I remember every star?

If I could be you for a day?

…

I would be part of a Greater Whole
