Dedicated to all the people who will never read our poems!
the Great barrier reef.
The Sydney bridge and opera house.
And stared at great whites teeth.
If I should die before I've seen
the Massai Mara plains.
The Serengeti water holes
and India's monsoon rains.
If I should die before I've seen
my grandson score a goal.
Or seen my precious daughter
raising up a new born foal.
If I should die before I've seen
the great Niagra falls.
Or visited the Vatican,
and seen its painted walls.
If I should die before I've seen
the things I leave behind.
Imagine just how terrible
it must be to be blind!

If I should die.
If I should die before i've seenthe Great barrier reef.
