"I want to do with you what spring does with the cherry trees."Pablo Neruda

let me...
be your air,
your skin,
the clothes you wear;
your fruit, your bread,
your water--
the mirage
in your desert;

let me...
light your day,
and sleep
inside the shadows
of your night;

let me...
be your music,
the words to your song,
the instrument,
your symphony;

let me...
be your dance,
the beat,
the rhythm inside you;

just,
let me
love you...
it is my want
it is my need

you are...my desire

'the mirage
in your desert'

Love the line, and the thought of being someones everything.

An invitation if I ever read one.
An allurement, an incentive, an offer, a request. Enjoyed.

Believe you me, there wouldn't be many men that would refuse you after reading this heart-touching, plaintive plea.

...and may he "let" you...

Happy Valentine's Day!

Beautiful poem, Sandpiper. Makes me think back to what I wanted with my sweetie before he was mine. :-D Happy Valentine's Day and I hope that you find your special someone.
