If I could give you anything,
no limitations placed on me,
if all the world were mine to bring,
what might the perfect present be?
Prismatic colors I'd create
if I could give you anything,
blown into bubbles with no weight
to circle you with rainbow ring.
From every bubble there would swing
a fairy frocked in raiment fine.
If I could give you anything,
each swing, a honeysuckle vine.
At every vine a hummingbird
would feed on wine and flap its wings.
I'd make this yours, I give my word,
if I could give you anything.

Author Notes
My daughter had an accident at work a couple days ago and spent a few hours in the emergency room. She is recovering nicely, but upon seeing a picture of her looking so forlorn in the waiting room, I ached that I could not be there to comfort her. After hearing her story of being in such pain, I just wanted to send her the best present in the whole world to make her smile her sweet smile again. I hope it goes without saying that she loves bubbles and fairies :-)
