A Penny for Your Tears

by Shirl A Steward

If only I could, I would, but I can't.
If only I could, I would
turn every tear you've ever shed
into a magic potion which
miraculously transforms
them tenfold into warm and joyous
expressions of gratitude
for the love that awakens and arouses
the spirit and beauty
of who you truly are.
\I would if I could, but I can't.
I will, however, love you
until there is no dawn,
until there is no moon,
until there is no longer
a you . . . or a me.
