I would give to you a gift, something from the heart
That you may remember me, should we be apart
I searched for something special, that lends itself to say
How much my heart burns for you, every moment of the day
I looked around to see, flowers of every kind
The colors were so beautiful, the scents so divine
I saw a lot of animals, kittens and puppies too
But none so soft and warm or nearly as lovely as you
I turned to the Oceans where dolphins and corals thrive
Reefs of endless beauty a mirror of the sky
But still the deepest oceans were shallow in compare
To the wisp of your voice and the flowing of your hair
So I took to the heavens and witnessed the birth of stars,
galaxies and nebulae, wonders from afar
And in this place of wonder, I finally came to see
to show my love and passion, what I give to you, is me.
