It Only Takes...

It only takes one second,
One glance,
One thought,
One glimpse,
One stare,
One breath of cold or warm fresh air,
It only takes a second...

It only takes one minute,
To hug,
To stroke,
To chase,
To reminisce,
To stay awake at night and miss,
It only takes a minute...

It only takes one hour,
To arrive,
To delay,
To vow,
To kiss,
To exchange the rings and to make the promise
It only takes an hour...

It only takes one morning,
To wake
To make,
To stroll,
To talk,
To go hand in hand to the park to walk,
It only takes a morning...

It only takes one night,
To eat,
To dance,
To drink,
To date,
To stay up late to copulate,
It only takes a night...

It only takes one day,
To visit,
To play,
To make out
To meet,
To take the train to goto the beach,
It only takes a day...

It only takes one week,
To stay,
To roam,
To sleep,
To dine,
Two newly weds alone to spend time,
It only takes a week...

It only takes one month,
To look,
To find,
To shop
To buy,
To spend a fortune on a baby girl or guy,
It only takes a month...

It only takes one year,
To conceive,
To bear,
To feed,
To gain,
To give birth to a child and to give them a name,
It only takes a year...

It only takes one decade,
To nurture,
To watch,
To wait,
To show,
To become a family and watch them grow,
It only takes a decade...

It only takes one Lifetime,
To cherish,
To keep,
To have,
To hold,
To love and to grow warm and old,
It only takes a Lifetime...
