Forever And A Day
By Paul Wilson


If I gave you tomorrow
would you let it slip away
If I gave you my heart
would you cherish it forever and a day

If I promised all your wishes would come true
would you save them in your heart like lovers do
If I make you cry from time to time
would you forgive me…like I forgive you

If love is measured in time there’s not
enough hours in the day to measure mine
If tomorrow never comes will you know
my love these words could never define

Sleep my love in restful peace
dream your dreams of better days
Call my name in your slumber
touch me and I appear from the haze

Morning Glories welcome you in rise
my heart skips a beat when you walk into the room
Four O’clocks track the evening sun
from the front porch I smell your sweet perfume

If I gave you tomorrow
would you let it slip away
If I gave you my heart
would you cherish it forever and a day

I love you with all my heart
by your side I will always stay
I promise to love you
Forever and a day

Excellent write Paul.  These two lines say a lot.  I do enjoy your poetry.
