A young man's pondering on "What if?"
Some times I sit and ponder,
Right or wrong my life to change?
Live for the future, relive the past,
Which path to take?  My mind in wonder

In deepest thoughts I find me,
Asking “what if..?”  “What would be now?”
Decisions made in times gone by
Hauntingly reveal what I’ve come to be.

Could I affect those days long past,
And just one youthful error change.
What a boon t’would be to me.
From these doldrums I’d be cast.

And then I could sit and ponder
All those bounties I received.
Planning of my brilliant tomorrows,
Knowing which path, my life a wonder.
