CAN YOU?

If you could steal a star
Hide it in a safe place
Where it glittered for you alone
A most precious jewel
In its own private tomb
Would you?

And if you could ride a rainbow
With abandoned glee
It's glorious hues
Absorbed only by thee
Leaving it colourless
Could you?

And if you could float on a cloud
Interfere with the weather
Aware it might cause 
A downpour 
Forever
Should you?

And if I ask you to forgive me
Can you?
Marion Price(2019)

Absolutely, Marion. 
You had me at 'If'. 
Beautiful, regretful, wondrous writing, Marion. 
You're such a great writer. The pain within the lines is tangible. 
Really loved that! 

Matthew.
