If I Could...


If I could- I would change the world and make it kinder, more just - a world of peace... but I am not God, possess no miracles- still, I'd aim high... If only I could, and were able I'd right wrongs crush corruption... But on a more personal level I'd have the means to travel widely to writer's retreats, Belize, the South Pacific, ( Oh, to see Vienna and Budapest only once more...) All in all, I'd want the assurance that I'd never waver if I struggle and since we are engaging in fantasy, yes, I'd like to fly, be invisible and turn back time ( if only awhile) though honestly, if I could I'd cull more courage cleave closer to my loved ones, in conclusion I'd just be- a better me.
