What if I said it's an April evening, The most refreshing breeze blows from you, In you, I see the bluest of seas, I wander in the deepest of forests within you, I plucked the most everlasting flowers from you, I tilled the most fertile soil in you, I tasted all the fruits in you. What if I said you are for me, As necessary as air, As blessed as bread, As precious as water; You are a blessing, a true blessing! What if I said... Believe me, my love, believe, You are the celebration in my home, the spring in my garden; And the oldest wine on my table. I live in you, You reign within me. Let me describe your beauty, With the winds, rivers, and birds. One day, after many days, If you can't hear my voice, Among the voices of the winds, rivers, and birds, Know that I have died. But don't be saddened, be at peace; I will make the insects in the grave memorize your beauty, And then, On the day you hear my voice again in the sky, Remember it's the day of judgement, I am all over, searching for you.
