I want to have a garden with you
filled with fresh bright growing fruits.
I want to fill it with flowers,
and shower you with their petals.
I want to lay in our lawn,
basking in your love and the sun.
I want to cook with you,
filling you up with goodness.
I want to fill your mouth with
savory flavors, and sumptuous sweetness.
I want to admire your flavors:
menus designed to delight me.
I want to eat from your hand
and lick the last drop from your fingers.
I have nestled into your side
and hugged you deeply to my chest
and know it is the right place
for me to be. Now I want to do
the rest, and to continue to feel blessed.
