I CAN BE.

 

I can be;

 

Tell me,

do you want a Monday morning coffee with

a kiss on the cheek;

because that I can be.

 

Tell me,

do you want a Tuesday afternoon sunrise with

unbroken silence;

because that I can be.

 

Tell me,

do you want a Wednesday noon tea with

chatter to fill the quiet;

because that I can be.

 

Tell me,

do you want a Thursday evening walk by the beach with

a hand to hold;

because that I can be.

 

Tell me,

do you want a Friday night cheek to kiss with

a sweet goodnight;

because that I can be.

 

Tell me, 

do you want a Saturday morning face to awake to with

a smile to accompany it;

because that I can be.

 

Tell me,

do you want a Sunday afternoon stroll through the park with

a heart to call your own;

because that I can be.
