Poem: What if we Knew

What If We Knew

What if we knew 

What each day would bring,

That every small thing 

Really mattered,

What if we knew

Our lives might soon change,

An accident loomed,

Or some other problem

Awaited,

We could see all the lives

Impacted by ours,

The folks that we hurt,

And those who were touched by our words,

What if we knew

The actions we choose

Could change

The whole world

For the better,

What if we knew,

Would we doing something new,

‘Cause the fact is, it’s true,

The things that we do

Really matter.
