If I could
If I could:
I’d sing a sweet serenade
And tame wild and restless Wind
To carry it, day and night,
Over wide-pathed land, to you.
If I could:
I’d steal from the boy who lived,
Destiny’s wand and bewitch
Night’s bulbs to spell out our names
For the world to see AND know.
If I could:
I’d bribe, with Iris’ bow,
Fate, to deal us better hands;
And Time, with Cleopatra’s hand,
To prolong serene moments.
If I could,
I’d be there with you.
