If-ing by Langston Hughes

If-ing

If I had some small change

I’d buy me a mule,

Get on that mule and 

Ride like a fool.

If I had some greenbacks

I’d buy me a Packard,

Fill it up with gas and

Drive that baby backward.

If I had a million

I’d get me a plane

And everybody in America’d

Think I was insane.

But I ain’t got a million,

Fact is, ain’t got a dime —

So just by if-ing

I have a good time!

Langston Hughes

The Sun Never Says by Hafiz

The Sun Never Says

Even after all this time
The sun never says to the earth,
“You owe Me.”

Look what happens with
A love like that,
It lights the Whole Sky.
