Petite Poetry

A smile is just a ghost,

A ghost of something so much greater,

A smile is a memory,

A connection to a moment lost,

A smile is the longed-for fist kiss,

A part of something so much greater,

A smile is a fondness,

A rare treat for a friend to share,

A smile is a warm moment to yourself,

A personal treasure to be shared,

A smile is life,

A life so precious and short.
