Random April-isms
If you were here Right now What would I say?
I would say something Witty to make you laugh I love to make you laugh
If you were here Right now What would we do?
I would brew you a cup Of tea because you like it And I like being with you
If you were here Right now How would it feel?
It would feel like a free trip to Six Flags It would feel like Christmas It would feel like coming home
Do you remember when… Well of course you do You never forget what matters It’s one of those eternal laws.
Hey did you ever feel… Because I did I do still Some days more than others but always.
Hey when I said…. But you knew that didn’t you. Because you know me so well You always fill in the blanks for me.
You know that I…. I know that you know, but I’m just saying… Saying it out loud… just to be sure.
Her skin is as soft as a dogwood’s petal Her heart is as tender as the sole of a newborn babies’ foot Her eyes dance like a candle’s flame in a summer breeze Her mind is as quick as a lightning flash Her wit is as dry as fine white wine and as intoxicating This yellow rose of Texas of mine.
He is a little more like his father every day The strength An Atlas syndrome; a drive to fix it all The heart of a white knight .
He is a little more like me every day The need to please A Bacchus syndrome; The need to laugh out loud a lot The heart and soul of a poet
He is a little more himself every day He chooses slowly A Solomon syndrome; debates more wisely The heart of a gentleman and a warrior king.
Slow down, my Atlas We can delegate the weight of the world Find a Hercules for a little while
Come closer, my Adonis
I’m no Aphrodite but
I bear and give great love.
Even a hero needs a rest
Even a warrior has to drop a shield
I pray the space between us is a safe place.
