The Smile of an Angel

Accidental Poet



 

Rare it would be

For an aging man

To love one woman for all but

The first ten years of his life

Most will say it’s sad

To live a life alone

Some will understand

How he feels for this lady

And a certain few

Would give anything

To be that man

Still, this aging man

Alone as he is

His heart bears the smile

The smile of an Angel

He had there in his life

    Dear AP,

    Awesome poem complemented with a great video. There are people in our lives that come and go; but some will never leave us. They’re there forevermore.❤️

    Thank you for sharing.
    Wish you a wonderful weekend.☀️

      Thank you Laura, in September it'll be 55 years since the first day I saw Sharon and my life changed. I've never seen it as sad, only as a precious gift 😊

      So loving, and that is a rare thing indeed

      Such beautiful words of love, possibly sadness but never regret. Love is a precious gift to hold onto, no matter how long it lasts.

        Sad for some Bella, but it's never been sad for me. Yes, I would've preferred that she stayed in town, and we got to know each other better, even a romance between us. But I learned to except the fact that her family had to move away, and she had to move with them. We were both only 14 years old at the time. We never know where our destiny will lead us. But trying to understand the reasons for those destinies can be very intriguing. Thank you for the read and your compliment.

          Such sweetness in young love, first love.

          Hey, it is what it is and if it makes you happy, then I say go for it. I'm glad you had someone in your life for the time you did. Great write!
