If I Had

If I had but one wish,
I’d wish for you a smile,
Laughter filled honeyed dish,
That truly was worthwhile.
If I had but one gift,
I’d give to thee a hug,
A squeeze that sets ill adrift,
And love that holds' thee snug.
If I had but one day,
I’d spend it with thee dear,
We’d be children at play,
Who’ve known naught but cheer!
If I had but one dream,
It’d have to be of thee,
You’ve set my heart agleam,
You’re everything to me!

Remember, if you're not part of the future, you're history!

I really needed to read this today Kevin.
May I pretend for one moment they were meant for me?
Excellent write m'friend.
Hugs and Happy New Year.

    In the midst of winter..
I found there lives within me,
    an invincible summer.
