If I Were ____________

The prompt for Wednesday was to start a poem: If I were _____ and go from there. My offering is below.

Alone

If I were alone
I would laugh aloud
and fling my arms out
and dance down he hall.

If I were alone
I would sing silly songs
as loud as I wanted
and make up new lyrics
as I went.

If I were alone
I would run outside in my bare feet
and play in the grass
and make daisy chains with
the clover.

If I were alone
I would watch the sun cross
the blue sky, or watchImage
the clouds scamper by
or watch the moon rise.

But I’m not alone.

And if you see my eyes
twinkle
every now and then
maybe now you
know
why.

Writer, reader, and all about scamp, I also work as a legal secretary to pay the bills and have so many hobbies they have become kind of disjointed. I think I need more focus. Look! A rabbit!
