I Would Have Sent You Flowers

I would have sent you flowers

But I don’t have your address.

I would have sent you kisses

Or a lingering caress.


Might have bought a gown

Or some other costume to wear,

But I don’t know what size you are

And just how much you’d bare.


Jewels, they may have dazzled you

With such sparkle and radiant shine.

Or dinner at a posh new place

With tempting music and wine.


I could have picked a Hallmark card

But none held right the sentiment.

And words, escape the belief I have

That you were heaven sent.


I might have called you on your phone

Or even sent a text,

But I’ve no clue what your number is.

This condition leaves me vexed.


I see you in my dreams each night

And hold you in my arms.

Enchanted and elegant,

I fall for all your charms.


But in the morning’s predawn gray

The sight of you is blurred.

For I have no picture to fawn upon

I know, it seems absurd.


And so on this special day

When special things abound

I hope you get the things you wish

Long lost treasures found.


I hope your heart is filled with love

And laughter consumes this day

And magic moments tantalize

As you sail across the bay.


Maybe if you close your eyes

And make one wish with me

The moments that we’re scared to think about

Could come across to be.
