I gave you violets;
you gave me your smile.
I gave you elderflower wine;
you gave me wild strawberries.
I gave you a small brown bird
that hid in the shadows;
you gave me the nightingale
singing to the summer midnight.
I gave you my need;
you gave me your warmth
and almost-tears
and rainbows.
I gave you poems;
you gave me inspiration.
