What If
What if trees grew no leaves?
What if the ground grew no trees?
What if there was no rain or snow?
No fruit or plants or flowers that grow?
No oceans or lakes or mountain streams
No sun or moon or stars that gleam?
What if there was no reason to hate?
No reason to lie, no reason to cry
No envy, or anger, or jealousy
No prying eyes or enemies
No watching the clock or doors to lock.
No too much work for too little pay
No thieving leaders to take it away.
No being accused of things untrue
No self-righteous people looking down at you.
No mail boxes filled with useless junk mail
No phone calls from strangers with something to sale
Now days there's a price tag on all you see
Everything costs nothing is free!
