Default If I Had Taken Time

If I Had Taken Time

If I had taken time to say
Some kindly words along the way
To people sad and in dismay,
I could have brightened up their day,
If I had taken time.

If I had taken time to tell
Some striving one I wished him well,
Or helped him if some ill befell,
I might have caused gloom to dispel,
If I had taken time.

If I had taken time to look
For someone bad luck overtook,
And of his burdens I partook,
I might have changed his life's outlook,
If I had taken time.

I might have made some lives sublime,
If only I had taken time.
--Dave Wadley, Sunshine Magazine, June 1991
