If I Were

    By Ella Wheeler Wilcox



    If I were a raindrop, and you were a leaf,
        I would burst from the cloud above you,
    And lie on your breast in a rapture of rest,
        And love you, love you, love you.

    If I were a brown bee, and you were a rose,
        I would fly to you, love, nor miss you;
    I would sip and sip from your nectared lip,
        And kiss you, kiss you, kiss you.

    If I were a doe, dear, and you were a brook,
        Ah, what would I do then, think you?
    I would kneel by the bank, in the grasses dank,
        And drink you, drink you, drink you.
