For You
If I could sing, I would sing a breezy ballad for you just like Ella
And let the words linger for you my dear
If I could dance, I would have graceful balance and toes tapping the music in a Fred morse code
And let the steps celebrate you
If I could discover, I would find a singing Spring robin no longer Rachel’s silent one
And let it see your beautiful face
If I could swim, I would be the trumpeter swan regally posing
And reflecting peace for you my dear
If I could last, I would be the old gnarled pine clinging to the dusty cliff
Just to see you again
If I could do all these things,
I would for you
