I Can You Can

I can write, and you can sing
let us combine what we bring,
sweet music will be our thing.

You can draw a picture,
and I can fill it in
joining our talents into a masterpiece. 

I can read to you a book, a chapter, or a line
and you can sit by my side  
Peace can be found in quality time.

I can drive you to the store in your hour of need
You can bake the macaroni while I grill the corn
together we can share the food, and weather any storm.

And if you are half the picture you want to see
there I am around the corner
with the other half of we.
