What's on your list?
Of things to do,
Of phrases to say,
Of ideas to think of too,
People to see,
Places to be,
What's on your list for today?
What if you die,
In a day,
What would you say?
Who would you think of?
Would you say 'I love you',
A little more often,
Smile and laugh,
A bit more too,
Would you cry over memories?
Wonder about forgotten dreams?
Think,
'I wonder...could that have worked out for me?'
Would you dance in the rain?
Kiss a loved one again,
Hold someone's hand,
Make love without end,
Try a new brand,
Say 'Howdy' to an old friend,
How would you spend,
Your last day on earth?
Listen to a new band,
Watch a baby's birth,
Start a new trend,
Hold a baby,
In your arms?
Talk about life,
About endings,
About starts,
How you've felt,
Your heart's,
Many stutters and stumbles,
When the thunder rumbles,
When your baby girl,
Takes her first tumble,
Would you cry,
For loved ones gone,
On before you,
But smile because,
You hope to see them soon?
What would you do,
If you knew...
