I want to be

Ian Hunter2 Comments

I want to be the pop in your corn

I want to be the polish on your fingernails

I want to be the icing on your cake

I want to be the key to your front door 

I want to be the pillowcase on your bed

I want to be the lipstick in your purse

I want to be the man accompanying your hattan cocktail

I want to be the spice in your drawer

I want to be the knight in shining armor on your white horse

I want to be the talk of your town

I want to be the brightest flower in your garden

I want to be the snowy peak of your mountain climb

I want to be the music that you dance to

I want to be the keyboard on your computer

I want to be the olive in your dirty martini

I want to be the sand between your toes

I want to be the meat in your sandwich

I want to be the flame on your candle

I want to be the poached egg on your toast

I want to be the wind in your sail

I want to be the bubble in your bath

I want to be the raindrop falling on your face

I want to be the twinkle in your eye

I want to be your everything

Gravity and love

Ian Hunter4 Comments

we take gravity for granted

gravity makes objects fall towards earth

gravity keeps your feet on the ground

gravity maintains the earth in an orbit around the sun

but how does gravity work

what makes two distant objects attract each other

science defines gravity as a force

I want to know what generates that force

love is an invisible force that brings two people together

love makes you feel attracted to another person

the closer you get the stronger you feel it

love keeps many couples together for a lifetime

everybody has an infinite supply of love to share

children thrive on love

it feels good to give it out

and you feel ever so happy when you receive it

so now I understand it all

gravity is love

love is gravity

The pebble

Ian Hunter1 Comment

she picked up a pebble on the beach at dawn

it was heart shaped

holding in in her open hand

she could feel the heartbeat

she put the pebble in her pocket

walked back to her waterfront home

her husband was still sleeping

placing the pebble on his pillow

she got back into bed

drifted off to sleep

dreaming about being loved

being held tight

a loud noise woke her

her husband was sitting up

somebody put a rock in the bed he yelled

he threw it against the wall

she decided not to own up

her husband got up and dressed

there was no good morning kiss

he left the house soon after

she got out of bed

found the pebble on the floor

holding it tight in her hand

no heartbeat

it was cold and dead

it was time to move on

she packed a bag

made a few calls to friends

took a taxi to the airport 

she left a note on his pillow

I gave you my heart

but you threw it away

I am not made of stone
