Afikomen
the coming one
for Micah
If we had known that meal was last
What would have changed in that repast
If we had known how short the days
Would we have amended mundane ways
If we had known what followed here
Could we have held you more than near
If we had known when that morning came
Would we have faced it meek and tame
If we had known the very hour
Would we have had any more power
If we had known or could have foreseen
Would we have understood all it will mean
If we had known from that day to this
What would have changed in all we miss
Another good ‘if’ poem … seem to remember someone really famous wrote one, once …
