If all I do Is hold your hand, Would you walk with me Along the strand? If all I do Is touch your cheek, Whisper, “I Love You” Will that make you complete? If all I do Is touch your soul, Will a band round your finger, A circle of gold? If all I do Is ask, “marry me,” Is that enough To set your heart free? If all I do, Is simply all this, Could you start each day With only my kiss? |

Thank you Ethel. This is not so much a young couple's love, but an elderly couple's love, when sometimes, just the knowledge of being close to each other is all they have. Is it enough? For some...yes. |

Lady, it's been so long since I've spotted you here, it's probably just me, though. A fine piece, love the ending, especially! Whether on the shoal or on the shore, |

mmmm *warm fuzzies*!! Very nice, very very! A dream is but a dream, you can wake up. Reality is ultimate, and those who share it with us are far more important than anything we could remember, |

What a unique, and uniquely honest look at the reality of it....Love this poem, and if the answer isn't "Yes," there's at least one fool on this planet. ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |

Lady In White - a kiss to wake the morning would be a good place to start. If, a little word, but how big it is... BC |
