If

'If' is the greatest word in the English language It is the tomato to a hungry writers sandwich, That word alone creates multiple wishes and dreams 'If' words were our clothing, 'if' would be the seams. 'If' gives both anticipation and a wondering thought With the desire to think or an idea sought, To many of us we use 'if' as a simple conjunction But, to many of us it is that simple clause function. It can grant an idea or a supposing that Then I could be thin, 'if' only I wasn't so fat, 'If' I was a rich man I could sleep my life away But, that is only 'if', But I am not, so I must work hard every day. 'If' you believe in GOD like I do! You must give him his praise But then 'if' you don't believe you can omit that exclamatory phrase, 'If' by my fingers I was hanging from a mountain cliff; I would probably think and say to myself, only if.
