A Flower of Love

If I had but one flower to send to you;
To show you how I wish to return the
sweetness, you have given me.
To be able to give what you have shown me,
To know that I, but a poor man
Would kiss the hand that you hold near me.
These words I lay at your feet,
so that I may reach out my hand;
Waiting for your touch of love,
That I so long to hold!
