If I Could Paint
If I could paint
I would paint a kiss
between our lips
as your arms lift me slightly
to dawn in your eyes
If I could paint
I would paint my emotion
through mist on your window - pane
I would write my name
in hope you'd think of me
with each pitter-patter
of first autumn rain
If I could paint
I would paint a muse
who is never distant
Nor She a night mistress
But a muse which dwells
in your soul, mind and heart
A muse which lives in your shadow
which travels the distances
and is never apart
.
If I could paint
I would paint a bridge
between the river and I
I would paint our silhouettes
between scintilla stars
and a mid~ twilightt sky
If I could paint
I would paint this dark world
as beautiful as you
I'd splash my brush
in a palette of pastels
Of hues'early blossoms
which bloom sweet jasmine blues
