A Child’s Request on Stopping Time
Daddy,
If I could stop time, then you would be here,
If I could stop time, then there would be no tears,
If I could stop time, I would have stopped the mortar,
If I could stop time, I could tell you I’ve grown an inch and a quarter,
If I could stop time, then there would be no war,
If I could stop time, you’d be beside me, helping me with a chore,
If I could stop time, you could tell me how you’ve gotten old and sore,
But since I cannot, you are here no more.
