The Smiles Poem by Paul Reed

The Smiles

Rating: 4.9


Here we are all again

Back in the old place

Like the good old days

With the future stretching in front of us

Like a beach without footprints

Swept clean by the tide

And waiting for the roar of the waves;

It's good to revisit the past

For just a little while

See some of the faces

And some we will never see again

Ghostly, they flit through our minds

And we remember the smiles.
