Bring me tulips in shades of purple
or lilacs if it's spring
bring me laughter & simplicity
or birds with gossamer wings
Bring me moonlight at its fullest
and no lies, as if there's none
for my life will have some meaning then
...after it is done.
Bring me girls in patterned dresses
or boys in soldier suits
bring me droves of new-found friendships
or a map with unmarked routes
Bring me old folk singing choruses
or the warmth of the summer's sun
for my life will have some meaning then
...after it is done.
Bring me a candle's whispered stories
or a fire's burning song
bring me waters filled with fairies
or a mistake that wasn't wrong
Bring me peaceful calm and gentleness
or a battle that's been won
for my life will have some meaning then
...after it is done.
In retrospect, I then would see
there's too much thats begun
so I'll wait and write this all again
after it is done!
