Her smile is authentic
Soft as pearls
Bright as daisies
She rests her head upon my shoulder
Tired and sleepy
There have been lots of riddles to solve today
We are pleased to see the moon
To walk the dark streets
And wonder
We are lucky to find truth in our path
There have been so many lies
Too many games
When I look at her face
Everything is clear and true
We know each other
Sometimes it feels as if we are one
Breathing
Dreaming
Smiling
We float on the pale leaves of the moon.
"We float on the pale leaves of the moon."...Exquisite!
ReplyDeleteThis poem exudes trust between the speaker and the one to whom she speaks. Lovely.
ReplyDeleteSuch certainty is marvelous. I wish to have someone love me so much they risk taking me for granted. To know and have no need to question. Trust. Now THAT's a worthy relationship. A mighty fine sunshine of a poem.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful.

ReplyDeleteI love the way you have made well-used similes fresh and new, Jae, and the sense of intimacy and trust you have built in this poem.

ReplyDeleteWhen I look at her face
Everything is clear and true
Wonderful poem Jae.
ReplyDeleteMy original comment has disappeared. Oh well, here is another. I read this several times. The last line is amazing. However, the line"When I look at her face everything is clear and true". That is really love and trust.
