Will You Give Me a Drink?

anything and everything
I’d give you a drink,
a warm cup of tea with lemon and mint, a confetti cannon, roses from the garden, my favorite sweatshirt, a bed to lay in, homemade bread, a hand to hold.
I’d give you my full attention. I’d give you my phone,
and say, put your number in. I’d give you the melody line, a standing ovation,
a sense of security.
I’d give you anything and everything if it made you believe
that you were enough.
