If

By: Steve Douglas Degginger

If I lay a single rose on your pillow
would you gently brush it with your lips and think of me?

If I lit a candle in the dark
would you look on its light and think of me?

If I gave you satin sheets for your bed
would you feel them against your skin and think of me?

If I sent you a bouquet
would you inhale the fragrance of the blossoms and think of me?

If I wrote you a sweet love song
would you hear it and think of me?

If I sent you candy in a box
would you savor them and think of me?

If you sat on the porch in the evening
would you see the moon and think of me?

If I told you all these things remind me of you
would you smile and think of me?
