If only I had



If only  I  had

If only I had two wings
 like a bird,
If only I had perfume
like  Anemones,
If I had Honey
like the fruits of  Pomegranate,
If only I had Power
Like  King  Solomon,
If only I owned the world  
Or I own  the  Garden of Redwan :
I would have put all the women
on one scale and put you in the other
and my heart is with you
Your scale would be heavier
So, say  what you want
and boast  as you wish
Your name will  immortalize    
in my poetry over time!
