If I Am Not There

  If I am not there…

If I am not there, who will be touching?
     Touching the sunset, when no one is watching.
If I am not there, who will be trying?
     Drunken with raindrops, laughing and crying
If I am not there, who will be Feeling?
     Feeling the breeze when loving and stealing.
If I am not there, who will be seeing?
     Watching the roses with their power of healing 
If I am not there, who will be dancing?
     Into the clouds when they are advancing.
If I am not there, who will be telling?
     Telling the stories of what autumn is selling.
If I am not there, who will be playing?
     Playing with sunshine so shadows are staying
If I am not there, who will be flying?
     Into the sunset, living or dying.
