If I Was An Artist Poem by Dave Dafes

I'd paint your visage in the sky,
Carve your sculpture on the mountains,
So the world without doubt could behold
How beautiful you are,

If I was a mason,
I will build you a castle in my heart,
To carry you with me,
Wherever I go,
There also shall you be

If I was a musician,
I will compose a symphony with your name
For the wind to whisper in faraway lands,
Then teach the birds to sing it
As their lullaby to the world ev'ry night

If I was a poet,
I'll make you immortal,
By composing a panegyric
For you so generations unborn,
Can learn of you,

If I was an astrologer,
I'll make it a life goal to search
The heavens for the brightest star,
Then call the star your name,

If I was an explorer,
I'll all my lifetime explore
The secret crevices of your heart,
Discover the unknown dimension of you as I currently do,
Unearth the hidden treasures
Within you for the world to see,

But I'm just a humble me,
Who's effort is for the world to know
How much it is you meant to me
For I can't be me,
If not you to make me, me.
Divine Rose,
I love you beyond words could express.
