If Only

*This poem is not of my invention.  It is an excerpt from the wonderful book, Holes, written by Louis Sachar.*

"If only, if only," the woodpecker sighs,
"The bark on the tree was as soft as the skies."
While the wolf waits below, hungry and lonely,
Crying to the moo-oo-oon,
"If only, If only."
