I Don't Ask For Much

A Poem by David O Whalen (O Haolin in Celtic)

Free verse that just happens to rhyme

Life...Tell me that you like me

Breeze...Whisper sweet nothings in my ears

Rainfall...Gift me mist and fog

Silken sheets...Soak up my tears

Memories...Bless me with sweet reveries

Trials...make me a better man

Age...Give me wisdom please

Time...make me the best I can

Patience...Tell me I have naught but time

Anger...Please take leave of me

Peace...Be a constant companion of mine

And love...I know it’s asking a lot, but

…`make me the best lover I can be...
