PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

If I could

I would take you away

and give you a home

where there is no gray

just white and pastels

so full of light

and sleep beside me at night

I would give this to you

If I could

and never take you for granted

nor cheat on you

unless of course you said I could

my palms are yours

kiss them in the evening

bring me coffee from your cup

I will drink of it as if in a dream

I would flourish like a wild new orchid

in your own private green house

know that no one else would get to see

my full bloom

only you................
