Something Within Them Connected Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

They would walk around,
With heads held down.
In passing,
I told them all...
They were beautiful.

They stopped to look up at me.
As if something heard,
Had been a first occurrence.
And the clouds departed,
From their eyes.

Smiles appeared upon their faces.
Erasing a sadness.
And all traces of it!
They believed what I saw.
And shared that between themselves.
Within them...
The Sun soon reflected.
Something within them connected.
