Smile

It was the cause
For the launch
Of a thousand ships
Sent a hundred fold that
Of men to battle

It would cause
The glumness of day
To vanish
As the day
Banishes night

It could be the cause
Of the heart
Stopping a moment
And then racing
To a faster beat

It is the cause
Of welcomed warmth
Silent greeting
That is louder
Than any hullo

It will be the cause
That eases
The tension on faces
Lifting spirits enough
To bring cheer from all

All because
It is a wonderment
That asks so little
Yet yields so much
From such delicateness

About rokuth

With a few exceptions, all the prose poems I have posted are at least a decade old. A reflection of some of the things I've lived through. New ones seem to be emerging, though... The blogs are more current. Rokuth = Ro(dney) Ku(lanayagam) Th(illiampalam) 'Khanahdhara' is actually a Sci-Fi/Fantasy story I'm working on.
