What I'd like to give you, is an ounce of my perfume Scented with smiles, laughter and inspirational love What I’d like to give you, is a feeling of joy abloom Pouring from the heart like a whisper from up above What I’d like to give you, is a miracle we’ll presume Compassionate promises that you can’t get rid of What I’d like to give you, is an ounce of my perfume Fragrant with light in hues of kindness, faith, grace What I’d like to give you, is lasting praise to resume Falling around your soul in the very warmest embrace What I’d like to give you, is a pause of every gloom Filling your heart with dreams more alive than anyplace What I’d like to give you, is an ounce of my perfume Coloring your thoughts in hues of creativity and vision What I’d like to give you, is pleasure you’d never assume Marked by truth and wisdom to control every decision What I’d like to give you, is assurance you won’t find doom Wherever you go will be light and love, stirring provision What I’d like to give you, is an ounce of my perfume So that you can smell the fragrance of honest hope What I’d like to give you, is gentleness to fill the room Breathing out a pledge of elation to help you cope What I’d like to give you, is the desire to consume Elation that defies all thought in its beautiful scope What I’d like to give you, is an ounce of my perfume An aroma to remind you that you are loved so much What I’d like to give you is a love that resists the tomb Love that thrives and survives, grows with each touch What I’d like to give you is a feeling that will loom Forever alive on the inside, thrilling the heart as such What I’d like to give you, is an ounce of my perfume What I’d like to leave you, is a pearl from the soul What I’d like to give you, is a lasting, jubilant plume What I’d like to leave you, is love that makes you whole What I’d like to give you, is memories you can exhume What I’d like to leave you, is love from the heart you stole I’m going to bring you home, to a love that will never roam Bring Me Home Poetry Contest Sponsored by Mystic Rose Rose September 25, 2021
