Can You And I? Can you begin at the base of my mountain slowly climb till reaching the cliff at the utmost top? If I suggested you jump would you, could you, or would you hold onto what you started with till the end? Could you deep sea dive the depths of my ocean concurring the schools of fish currently in control? Would you drown if my oceans depth was to deep or would you rise to the surface for air now and then? Can you diagnose and repair my computer's main frame replacing mother board and ram memory gone bad? Will it require erasing all the memories of the past to reboot and start my repaired main frame all over again? Can a locksmith you become unlocking stubborn doors or are keys a hindrance to you preferring openness? If I locked myself out would you come rescue me or would your priorities leave me finding other measures? Would you allow me to scale your mountain memorizing every ridge bungee jump within your security till daylight turns to night? Could I reach the peak and still see the beautiful valley below through eyes that embrace nature piece by piece? Can I surf the tides of your ocean starting with the highest as it's intense wave caresses my imagination? Could I savor the lowest tide caressing the evening relaxed in the softness of the sandbar below the water's rule? Can I play on the keys of your computer make them come alive with the touch of my fingertips creating romance? Can my computer and your computer network together creating a powerful mega force no one can corrupt? Can I become a master key in your life unlocking all the closed doors so freedom can reign? Can I use my key to unlock our fantasy's making way for two single worlds to become one? Can you and I climb the tallest mountain together hand in hand guiding each other through the journey like there's no tomorrow? Can you and I hang glide over the valley below our sky line floating away further into our destiny forever together? |

*sigh* this one is a keeper for sure. i can see why it's one of your favorites. your work always holds for me such honesty and pure emotion. elegantly written. take care. amy ![]() "Don't be dismayed at goodbyes. A farewell is before you can meet again. And meeting again after a moment or a lifetime is certain for those who are friends." "Fate exists but it can only take you so far, Because once you're there It's up to you to make it happen." |

wonderful poem. I hope he said yes to all of these questions, if so then it has to be true love. Would you allow me to scale your mountain memorizing every ridge bungee jump within your security till daylight turns to night?
