if
If I could write a poem, filled with
words so beautiful that they would
float to you, swirl around and cradle
you. Penetrate to your innermost
depths and unlock your heart. I
would find them all.
If your heart opens for a song I
would study the greatest composers,
construct the sweetest melody, and
train my voice to serenade you nite
and day.
If you fancy paintings I would fill it
with bold strokes. Bright and sure.
Yellows and oranges. Images that
will make you dance and sing.
If I could captivate you with the
beauty of the universe. Quarks and
leptons constantly spoken into
reality, creating and sustaining all
that we see. Infinities perfectly
matched. I would unify the forces.
If I could do anything to make you
see what I see. What may already be
there. I would do it in a flash. With
gladness.
All I can offer is incense. Rising up
to our God. The creator of majestic
mountains and lush valleys. Words
of hope and surrender.
A poem of sorts.
A prayer.
