If You Like

I can dance around the pool
in the green garden, 
if you like. 

I’ll sing sweetly to the little fish in the pool
in the green garden,
if you like. 

I can drink the crystal clear water from the pool
in the green garden,
if you like. 

I can pick ripe fruits from the trees
in the green garden,
if you like. 

I will write you a thousand words and endless stories
in the green garden,
if you like. 

I will catch the soft breeze in Mason jars
in the green garden,
if you like. 

I will play you music from my records
in the green garden,
if you like. 

I will read you books that make you cry happy tears
in the green garden,
if you like. 

I will pick flowers from the ground for you
in the green garden,
if you like. 

If you like,
I’ll give you all the beautiful things the world has to offer.

    i am learning to live without the idea of you

    and i am trying to fill up the empty cave 

    in my head, the one you created when you 

    fell to the ground and pulled me down with you. 

     

  • And So I Refrain

    she talks to me about the paper snowflakes she plans to make this weekend, and so i refrain from telling her that my bedroom has been decorated since the day after thanksgiving.
