WHAT IF…

What if boys never played football.
What if girls never skipped.
What if children were never children.
What if…

What if flowers never grew.
What if the sun never shone upon them.
What if that had never inspired the soul
of a poet to put his pen to paper and write.
What if...

What if I’d never met her at the station.
What if that bench had not been there.
What if trains didn’t even exist!
What if...

What if no-one dropped a cigarette-end.
What if cigarettes never ended.
What if Sir Walters Mum had never met Sir Walters Dad.
What if...

What if Hitler’d never been born
What if someone had bought him a football.
What if someone bought him a skipping rope!
(may-be someone did!!)

What if…
