            Your Smile

Under a hazy November moon,
ten thousand dry leaves fall
   with colors unseen,
the brittle sounds of another
   Autumn passing.
My longing heart too fades,
here where an empty chair
waits for someone who will
   never come again.
For even the most solitary
there must be love.
You were the golden thread
that tied me to this life and
my world was your smile.

           --- b. e. adams (11/3/2015)

A warm and loving dedication, to whom I do not know. But the chair, the solitude, the longings for one who once shared tender moments...these I know.

Crafted with care SHDP.
