Hi everyone, This poem I wrote is for Betty Lou (Trillium), my dearest friend and soul sister! If Only..... If only I could be with you To experience nature like you do As wild turkeys take their feed From you when winter covers what they need. Still through your eyes you take me where Marie Creek runs; where moose graze and stare. If only I could be with you To walk through berries oh so blue While hummingbirds hum many a song Between maple tree and feeders all day long. Still through your eyes you take me there Where scarecrows sport their latest wear. If only I could be with you I’d love to wander all day through Around Coeur D’Alene where you dwell, Taking in the sounds and the smell. Still through your eyes you take me where Deer sniff scent in the air. If only I could be with you, Watching to a distant view Of snow capped peaks; falls retreat, Snow flakes falling at your feet. Still through your eyes you take me there Along the path you tread with care. If only I could be with you And rise to see each day anew, Then watch the setting of the sun Beside you; wouldn’t that be fun. Still through your eyes you take me where I long to live the life you share. If only..... By Elizabeth Singh (November 23rd 2004) |
