if

if i gave you a song
would you sing it
eyes closed
to hear the words
like pearls
hung ’round your neck
catching the light
of a thousand fires
lit
in simple suplication

    So tender sweet pea.

    Words that draw me in and revive the romantic in me that sees little warmth these days.

    If you gave me a song, dear heart, even in my froggy voice, I’d sing it forever. It would be embedded forever like one of those lyrics that you can’t ever get out of your head – nor do you want to. Tender and lyrical, darling Butch – romantic imagery that makes the heart sing! Love you…love it xox

  • sometimes all we have is hope…. love you dear lianne…. and thank you…..b
