Here is a short song excerpted from a poem I wrote many years ago. I thought you’d enjoy it.
Lyrics for I Wish That I Could Carry Lakes
I wish that I could carry lakes
with me in my pockets.
Then, no matter what,
I could spread them at your feet
so you would have to walk around them.
With me.
To quench the fire that burns
too deeply in your heart.
To wash away the cares
of too many yesterdays.
To answer your thirst.
I thirst.
Have you any tears for me?
Have you any tears?
