If I Could Reach Out To The World Poem by Stephanie Engle

If I could reach out to the world
If I could be more than just a girl
I would have a million things to say
Yet, who would listen anyway

I would talk of my highs and my lows
Of all my friends and my foes
I would talk of life and all its days
How each one has different rays

And don’t forget that there is tomorrow
No time today to sulk in sorrow
Always keep your head up to the sky
Don’t worry about asking the question “why”

Life is a gift, a treasure, amazing
You never know what it will bring
Always say “yes” when asked to dance
That’s what I would say given the chance.

If I could reach out to the world
If I could be more than just a girl
I would have a million things to say
Yet, who would listen anyway
