It could be anywhere

It could be anywhere
a street in Paris
or a coffee shop in Berlin;
it could be a kiss
after midnight
or the caress at dawn.

The heart of a flower
as it blooms
just to be broken
in a capricious
summer storm.

It could be, just anything
and anyone
that gift left on the doorstep
that makes you puzzle and frown
or the one that's delivered
with a pink cheeked smile.

Just anything, anywhere
when you feel really down
and no one loves you at all,
it could be that pick up
and turns your world
right around.

True. It doesn't have to be expensive or wrapped. It just has to be a sign that you mean something to somebody (which, though you may forget, you always do).

Bravo, Elle! Beautifully conveyed from a unique angle that resolves exceptionally in the last verse.

Something almost anyone could relate to. I find cats can do it for me on occasion. Fine writing.
