Anything, anything Anything at all. From the valley so low, To the mountain so tall. From the deepest depths, Of the great blue sea. Pray tell what you crave, That I might bring it to thee. A single snowflake, From Everest's peak. I would fetch it for you, If the words you did speak. The rarest of flower, From the worlds deepest wood. I'd bring you back two, I avow that I would. The most fabulous of gems, From deep in the Earth. I'd salvage a bushell, to afford you my worth. One tipple of water, From the lands clearest spring. I'd divine the very one, And that's what I'd bring. Out into the night, To glean a glint from a star. I would find a way, No matter how far. If you should pine for them all, Just make your decree. Ardently I defer, You possess all of me. "The secret of life is enjoying the passage of time" ~James taylor~ [This message has been edited by allamericanjoe (10-12-2003 11:24 AM).] |
