If you be a flower,
You’d be a rose so beautiful
Beaming bright, red and fresh;
If you be a bird,
You’d be a dove so dainty
Full of love and peace;
Still, if you be a food,
You’d be a lovely pumpkin pie
Piled high with cream
A delicious treat so ever wonderful;
If you be a brook,
You’d be the stillest one
Flowing, flowing ever still;
And if you be a person,
You’d be more beautiful than a rose
And you’d be mine
Always, forever, always, and forever

I actually just came up with this idea one time and decided to write about it when i was researching about Poetry for English class. I never wrote it about someone, but I did give it to someone :)
