If I could Draw
-I would draw the outline of the sun
riveting in the lake
And the shadow of the Maple tree
swaying in the wind
-I would draw the gasp before you laugh
and the glint in your eyes
-I would draw the kindness
I see everywhere
And the comfort extended
for all our mistakes
-I would draw the
Incredible gentleness of a
grandfather's smile
and the warmth of his genuine touch
-I Would draw the treasures I see every day
-I would draw the funny story you just shared
And the unassuming passion for little things
-I would draw the simplicity of a hearty handshake
And the caring among friends
-I would draw a tender song
and all the lyrics of hope
-I would draw the gratefulness I feel
For all the beauty we have been given
-I would draw my restless spirit at peace.
