For You

For you, I want to write beauty
With golden words to litter the page.
Curling soft syllables to stir your thoughts
So my parchment transforms into a stage
Where the feelings from my heart
can fondly be played

For you, I want to sing harmony
With soft silver notes of clarity,
sharp and clear to echo in your ears
So my song sweetens the air you breathe
And my melody hums happy devotion
Forever to you , from me

For you, I want to craft exquisitely
With bronzed tree turned on my lathe
A cherry dark wood, deep and solid
So I can carve for you a polished box
To hold more of my amour
with every mark I shave

For you, my guide, I want to show my truth,
For you, my love, I want to show my peace
For you, my friend, I want to show my flaws
For you, my spouse, I want to show my soul
For you, my all, I want to be my all.

    hmmm... I am appreciative of the thoughts behind it and the message itself is quite inspirational... I, personally, am not a fan of the rhyme or repetition though... not so much, here... although this is quite beautiful in a classical sense... reminiscent of poetry of old, indeed!

    I thank you for the entry! Good luck!

    nice one

    though the entire poem was very cute to read but I like specially the last part of the poem..
    For you, my friend, I want to show my flaws
    For you, my spouse, I want to show my soul
    For you, my all, I want to be my all.
    keep it up.
