If I was to die today
You’d have so much to say
Say that I was a good man
The greatest son of the land
But now he’s gone away
If I was to die today
…
If I was to die tomorrow
Drown yourself in sorrow
Sob and cry and drop your tears
Remember me for a trillion years
After I’m buried below
If I was to die tomorrow
…
If I was to die yesterday
There would be no time to play
Just take my time machine
The one you’ve never seen
Bring me back to stay
If I was to die yesterday
fantabulous! 🙂

Good ideas. The correct grammar though is ” If I WERE to die today. This mistake is often made, and easy to change in this poem without altering context. Well done. Read my post called “As I Lay Dying”

Thank you Frank, the way I see it you eloquently take up the reactions of those you would leave behind. I can see how the gift of a time machine would be a wonder for those who really grieve and
whose lives have forever changed because of loss.
Strong poem with deep sentiment

I love the time machine idea. Is it a blue police box? a crazy super car created by a crazy scientist but driven by a teenager? 😉

The answer is “no” actually… that wasn’t the case. At least not “yesterday”, I would say… But anyways, a very sad idea. 😦
