If

by Louise Ryan

If you weren’t there it wouldn’t have happened

the world would not exist

the sun as you are shines down on us

and creates a soothing bliss

——–

If you weren’t there it wouldn’t have happened,

the trees they wouldn’t give us air

we wouldn’t be able to intake their beauty and experience life, although sometimes I know it’s not fair

——–

If you weren’t there it wouldn’t have happened,

the goodness, as we know it on earth

so many beautiful souls helping each other

as some pass to your arms there are many a birth

——–

You are there, things do happen,

but more good than bad

I know we can’t explain the latter

but I know it makes you sad

——–

And in my times of need you brought me comfort and peace

you come to me in other ways like through a writer’s piece

or in my dreams or in prayer

you’re in my heart forever,

for you I’ll always care.
