A Wish

I wish to pen a poem with soul, One that speaks of our love as a whole, A verse in which your hair's fragrance is bound, And one that sings with the tinkle of your anklets' sound. The poem's punctuation like the sun's wings unfurled, A pride-shattering verse that will shake your world, With forgotten promises and new paths to chart, A poem that beats with the rhythm of your heart. A verse that etches your memories deep, One that lulls your sorrows to sleep, A poem that wraps you in a cozy embrace, And brings a smile to your face. A poem that guides you to my home, A poem that serves as our chariot to roam, A verse that shelters you from scorching heat and sun, And lights your path when day is done. A poem where each word embraces only you, Your essence the map, your soul the land it's due, A verse that is your heart and you are its brand, A poem that is your art, and you are its grand. My heart overflows with words I can't contain, A love so deep, it's hard to explain. So I pick up my pen and let the ink spill, Not to be a poet, but to express love with skill.
