What Would I Do

If I were given a crayon I know that I would want to draw, Maybe I would color a beautiful swan Then I would color it without one single flaw. If I were given a crayon to draw. If I were given a pencil or a pen I know that I would want to write, Maybe about where I am going or where I've been That anticipation and desire does incite. That is if I were given a pencil or pen to write. If I were given a book That book hastily I would want to read, I would do more than to just skim and look And every word in it I would devour and heed. That is if I were given a book to read. If I were given a fishing rod I know that I would want to go and fish, I might catch a Bass or maybe even a cod Catching a big one would be my ultimate wish. That is if I were given a rod to fish. If I were given a baseball bat A baseball I know I would want to hit, I would hit it with a good solid splat That I would truly enjoy I do happily admit. That is if I were given a baseball bat to hit. If I were given a wrench and a screwdriver I certainly would find something to repair, I indeed would be a striver And to fix anything I know I'd fix it with a flair. That is if I were given tools to repair. If I were given a rifle or a gun I truly don't know what I would do, Is it for recreational or for protection or for fun Would my brain and fingers know what is true. If I had a gun or a rifle what would I really do. Randy L. McClave
