What if poem

The child wonders what would happen if his dad is jailed for not paying the taxes. What would happen if some emergency occurs and he has to call emergency no. What would happen if he calls his friend Frankie to eat pizza pie. What would happen if his plane is late and he is unable to travel. What would happen if nobody likes him.

What would happen if he is struct by lighting. He again wonders what would happen if he does not grow tall and remains stunted, what would happen if his head becomes smaller, what would happen if fish does not bite him shark or any other deadly fish , what would happen if his kite is torn by strong wind, what would happen if a war breaks out in his country and what would happen if his parents are divorced.

Further, the child wonders what would happen if his bus probably school bus is late, what would happen if his teeth do not grow strait, what would happen if he tears his pant and what would happen if he does not learn to dance. Whatif I tear my pants? Whatif I never learn to dance? Everything seems well, and then the nighttime Whatifs strike again! Like 6 3 Lovely Amazing Liked it Like 6. Angeni To reply, click a comment.

Though Zephaniah tackles difficult political subjects, his poems are also often engagingly funny. Back Why register? We're not interested in your data You can use most of our website without any need to register. Log in Register.
