Ode To A Smile
An unforgiving place
Full of demons and dragons
A dark world, lit only
By a single, beautiful angel
A curious gaze ever searching
Through the darkness his eyes wander
A lost soul seeking peace
A moment's companion
A stolen glance
A wink, a shy smile
A smile that brings light to a cold world
That dispels the dark webs that ensnare the heart
Soft laughter, sounding
At a quiet joke
Passed between friends
The soft sound of pure joy
Brings lines of elation
To a kind and gentle face
Though only for a moment,
A smile from the sweet and pure angel
Brings light and joy
To the soul of the wayward traveller.
