Second Chance

rain stings the sidewalk
                in a weak attempt at
                                winter in dallas

                    but you're warm.

    the summer
       (of my soul)
               grows in your eyes and
               blooms in your arms

if i were a bell...
                  if i were a rich man...
                                        if i were a poet

        i'd write words that would make lillies cry
                                   and fairies dance
                                    and angels sigh
          
        if i were a woman i'd make you a man
                                         but you...


                     you make a woman out of me.
