           If

If I am the sky
YOU are the stars

If I am the leaf
YOU are the rose

If I am the words
YOU are the tune

If I am the frame
YOU are the Mona
   Lisa

If I am the question
YOU are the answer

If I am the slumber
YOU are the dream

Absolutely a magnificent poem, Bruce! You need to break through those "eternal mountains" more often. I just finish a poem of love, but it pales in comparison.

Lay down a Neil Diamond bed and you'll have yourself a hit.

Excellent, Bruce. I think this might be a hit song with the right music.
