I Could Only Imagine
I could only hold you in my thoughts
breathe you in fields of apple and lilac
watch you in rain drops
meander you in words
follow you in winds
that sweep from the other side of morning
ponder you from water’s edge
for there are no bridges
wondering how does hello
unfurl into a trickle
a trickle into a river
a river into song
where it spills and shimmers
then floats away like summer
I could only imagine
for there are no bridges
