COLLECTION

10 28 2008

Place the  sunbeams in  my  pocket

Pick   the corals in the deep

Wrap  a  box of smiles for me

And seal  some rainbows in  a jar.

Catch  some lightning;

Squeeze them in a can.

Bring  a barrel of  sleepy stars

And place the moon in a bucket.

Deliver   stardusts  on my doorsteps

Push  the sea breeze through my window;

whisper  a sonnet  in the wind

To lull me through the night.

Race  with time  to  steal  me  from tomorrow

Live and dream with  me TO-DAY.

Then gently hold  my hand  and

keep me steady.

But  put  love in your caress

Add passion  in  your  voice

Then I’ll know your love  is true

And I’d  need  none of these collections.

I  shall not need  a bed of clouds

Nor   the  sunbeams to  warm my days.

I shall  blow the  stardusts  to join the silent wind

While I  free the stars  and moon

To  sparkle from afar.

I shall unwrap the box of smiles

Unplug the  jar of  rainbows;

Throw  lightning  back to the heavens

And let corals sink where they once were.

Let the sonnet   fade in silence  with the  wind

In exchange of your heart close by.

For   the impossible

If done without love

is  like a body  without its soul.

But love that’s true  pulls all possibilities.
