For Aliyah and Trinity


I wish I could show you the seashells 
lying along the shore.
I wish I could show you the oysters 
that lie on the ocean floors.

I'd love to show you the sunsets 
in all the parts of the world,
With all the sunrises and moonsets
and the way the stars shine, just as pearls.

I'd take you for rides on a moonbeam,
and have you home before dawn.
So, when you awaken to greet the new day,
the dream would be lost in a yawn.

But somehow you'll know that I've been there,
the day will feel extra bright.
And, knowing there's someone who really cares
will make all your burdens seem light.
