I remember your ghost of a smile.
It flickered across your lips,
And your eyes followed suit,
Twinkling merrily
As you dropped your head
In shyness.
I saw your essence,
And it was sweet, pure,
With longing tenderness.
I hope I shall be graced again.
Thinking of someone who smile like that is beautiful indeed, it brings so many sweet memories.
Thanks for sharing the cute smile with us. The note makes it look cuter.10/10.

It takes more muscles for a frown instead of a smile. Light up someones life with a beautiful smile. The rewards are many. Liked it.
@Jesus James Llorico Memories like this are sweet because it was a sharing of a real smile, shared without guile or deceit. Thanks for visiting.

Thank you both, Khairul Ahsan & Bradley Jay Phipps, for reading and sharing your thoughts. I like writing the notes to my poems, and I've only known one person who struck me like this, or at least I haven't noticed since.
