Can I Be |

Can I be Can I make you smile today? If only in the smallest way. Can I be your clown? To take away that frown. Can I be your butterfly? Bring a twinkle to your eye Can I be your fool? And say you are a precious jewel. Can I be your fondest wish? Perhaps a chocolate candy dish. Can I be a summer’s day? Chase away the dreary gray. Can I be a piece of fruit? To touch upon those lips so moot Can I be any of these? A dream upon a breeze. Perhaps a little snow white dove To whisper you of whom I love. |

I wish you could! Ha! I love this poem. And wish I could still ask such a wonderfully simple (read profound) question. |

Simple and wistful sweet, Seymour. A very pretty poem. Thanks for it. Claire Could a greater miracle take place than for us to look through each other's eyes for an instant?......Henry David Thoreau |

Seymour - what a wonderful writing, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I can't critique, as I find nothing at present to critique, it's just great. BC |
