POEM: Thank You for Your Smile

[katrina-ariel]

This is another poem I wrote so many years ago I don't even remember what sparked the words. It doesn't have a date on it, but it describes a moment that is beyond time, something I think many of us have experienced.

Your Smile

---

Thank you for your smile,
So graceful in your kindness.
I apologize for being so intrigued.

It seems as though the night
Has swallowed me completely.
I feel as if I've drowned.

And I wonder...

Would your kiss make me feel less lonely?
Would your eyes show the truth to me gently?
Would your smile always shine so brightly?

Or would it fade like a summer sun?

I thank you for your smile,
So selfless is your smile.
I only look away out of temptation.

Original writing by Katrina Ariel.

Thanks for reading. :)

Whatever happens, keep singing your song!

Peace. @katrina-ariel

Would your .... ? = No
Would it fade? = No

Looking away only to avoid temptation.
Please enjoy the smile, it is meant in admiration, perhaps more in another life.
Enjoying your contact and influence in this one.

Enjoy!

@enginwitty shared this post on both PYPT and his WordsWithWitty show this week, and I can see why he was so entranced by it! Your situational imagery is so identifiable and expressed so perfectly! You can put into words what many of us can only feel, abstractly, and then stumble even when trying to explain it, even to ourselves... 💖
