If I could bathe in dew with you <br />Capture a snow drop longingly <br />Descending on between our two <br />Pursed pressed lips turning blue. <br /> <br />If I could I'd freeze this time <br />For all our immortality, <br />And, there I'd love you only <br />There I'd adore the wintertime. <br /> <br />Those bewitching shivers on your breath <br />I'd pluck the stars for flowers <br />I'd wove them like a moonbeams thread <br />In silken ribbons silver for you. <br /> <br />I'd keep these memories <br />Till the world and all its miseries <br />Were once and finally all dead <br />If I could, but only, love you.<br /><br />Mark Heathcote<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/i-d-pluck-the-stars-for-flowers/
