Could Would Can

Is there ever a better time than the time we have now,

Do we need to remember the why nots and what hows,

Can I look at the trees without being pleased,

Would you ever understand the tides of the seas,

Could we ever live life without the life givers the bees,

Do we know why or when, where, or how,

Does your sidewalk get covered by the passing snowplow,

Do you dig it back out for a trail for the cows,

Or do you follow the sheep like Little Bo Peep,

Is our morning coffee a life giving treat,

Why do we wear our shoes on our feet,

To walk on a street all clustered with cars,

To watch the enchanting midnight stars,

Do we have reasons for liking the seasons,

Or are we all just a bunch of realistic Heathens,

The moon and the sun,

The flowers that we see,

All of this is beautiful to me,

Can we agree to disagree on the most simple of issues,

Or do we keep going and hand out some tissues,

Does Mickey Mouse make everyone smile,

Or do most think it’s better to ponder a while,

Did the Egyptians ever sink their thoughts in the Nile,

Was it ever accepted to give a sieg heil,

Or was it a trend, oh just for a while,

Do people get mad when the styles are changing,

Or do we partake in the frantic rearranging,

All we know now is the times they are changing,

But that’s not for me,

I’m comfortable exchanging,

The thoughts may be different in everyone’s mind,

But we’ll do this together,

Because were one of a kind…
