Just Waiting

I am white in a field of green

Swaying in the breeze

As bright as the sun

             Just waiting

Waiting for her to pick me.

I am the arms

The arms that bring her joy

When she sees the beauty upon them

Reminding her of the arms that use to hug her

            Just waiting

Waiting for her to pick me.

I am green

Under those bright white lights

Strong and lean

I am the base of everything

            Just waiting

Waiting for her to pick me.

I am the scent

The scent that reminds her of old times

Carrying that smell all around her

            Just waiting

Waiting for her to pick me.

It is me she sees

In that field of green

As bright as the sun

As the arms that bring her joy

Strong and lean

Carrying the scent of old times

            No longer waiting

For she has picked me.
