If I Could

If I could pick a flower for you, the brightest I’d try to find If I could capture time for us, the clock I’d like to unwind Our moment could last forever, just as we want it to be If I could stop the river a minute from moving to the sea, I’d kiss the water, then move it along and send it on its way Knowing as time ticks, it will reach you on the beach one day Heidi Sands 11/22/19
