. I will take your smile Along with my purchased Cans of vegetables Home tonight Through it you’ll be Beside me at my desk As I review my bank accounts When on the computer monitor I determine tomorrow’s schedule Eat dinner as if by a fire I will later Look up from the book I’m reading alone in bed Gaze out the window At the falling winter snow And I will again See you there In the grocery store Haloed by incandescent light And wonder who you are . |

Very beautiful. I fear you will buy more than you need in the attempt to refresh the memory of her smile.  |

Reminds me of the other evening when I was with my husband and a very good looking tall drink of man walked in... definitely not from this area... I was a little amazed when my husband commented on his good looks, too... but alas, he was looking for someone else, and was from my home state, so I doubt if I will ever see him again, but his eyes, oh his eyes... will haunt my dreams for nights...  Enjoyed this, John. Thank you! |

Makes me wonder how many people we make an impression on and never know that we have done so. |
