A Few Simple Gestures

I don’t usually do this, BUT here is an awesome POEM by Bradley Lester, have fun!

A FEW SIMPLE GESTURES

These are simple things I’d do, if you were mine to stay
I’d do these things, to show I care, the morn of each new day
I’d make you coffee, muffins too, and set them by your side
When you awake I’d kiss you ‘hi’, in you I would confide

I’d walk the miles in rain and sleet, to buy your favorite book
I’d walk back home, a happy man, along the gushing brook
The smell of fresh ground coffee, I enter and feel warm
I hand the covered book to you, still dry despite the storm

Your thankfulness is present, I see it in your eyes
You hold the book against your bosom, look up into the skies
Our eyes would meet, I simply nod, I know I’ve touched your heart
Your curl up now, begin to read, I leave the room and part

I’d make the lunch, you read the book, I’d do the dishes to
Just to show you that I care, and want to be with you
I’d take the washing from the line, I’d even start to iron
You read your book, I wouldn’t mind, my love for you would shine
