If I Were Your Love

If I were your love and you, mine, I would ask Earth to steady your way and provide smooth race to the last line with a paved path so you won’t stray. If I were your love and you, mine, I would ask Wind to sing a song of love and ardor so sweet and fine, you would agree that we belong. If I were your love and you, mine, I would ask Fire to spur you on encouraging your passions to align, and lay your fervor to bear upon. If I were your love and you, mine, I would ask Water to cool your brow with soothing sounds In rhythmic time and troublesome worries to disallow. If I were your love and you, mine, I could dream a life of grandeur sublime.

That is a beautiful poem, Linda. Earth, Wind and Fire and Water. All lovely, but "I would ask Earth to steady your way, and provide smooth race to the last line..." I really love those lines. Congratulations!

Sublime poetry, Linda, a winner in my eyes:) I never seem to write anything that pleases her, so I will not participate this time in her contest...
