Ifrevisited Poem by ENOCH JOHN

If I can smell the aroma of the beautiful flowers,
And walk on the beach and feel the sand tickle my toes.
If on a cool day I can walk among the trees and admire nature,
Or if I can sit by the esplanade and watch the waves break on the shore, or
Even if I can smell the lovely scent in her hair and admire her beauty,
If I can become quite poetic and even be moved to write a love poem;
If I can listen carefully I might hear the heavenly chorus.

If I can be patient enough or quiet enough I might become one with nature;
If I can cast away all the cares of this world and be free,
If I could sing like a bird or even fly beyond the cirrus clouds,
If I could be a superman then I would be more confident,
If, If, if only I could come to that place where I can stop doubting.
