Picking a rose in a garden of Sundays Calling your name on a broken branch wind Looking for clover where weeds are not welcome Walking the bridge till its time to begin
Dancing in puddles now filled up with laughter Running through traffic as cars speed away Searching for words in the headlines of morning Writing of moons and the stars on display
Collecting my thoughts when I think I will never Painting a smile on a shuttered front door Lifting a rock just to see what is under Shopping for clothes in a grocery store
Looking through openings cut in the carpet Reaching atop every shelf that I see Juggling penguins, now where did that come from Asking a bird what it knows about bees
Planting a tree in the depths of the ocean Baking a cake in a rooftop design Sweating the small when the big stuff does happen Thinking of beer when I’d rather have wine
Wearing a frown in the moments I’m happy Pushing a cart with a wobbly wheel Lurking in shadows that form on the sunset Dreaming of things that are hopefully real
Finding that all I have written is nonsense All of these verses above they will show When all I wanted to say was I love you Like in these stanzas I’ve written below
Penning a poem to say what I’m feeling Wishing the phrases will reach to your heart Sending you hints of my steadfast devotion Scribbling fonts that we never shall part
All that I am is now all that you make me There is no one that this man could love more You are the girl that I’ve wanted forever Eternally you’ll be the one I adore
So there you have it, quite crazy but true Ideas scattered from deep in my mind Where it is light with some dark in the corners There is no telling the things you might find
