As I go throughout days,
I see you as work
Swallows me.
There you are when traffic
Snarls.
Times I feel so
Alone,
I close my eyes and
Bright
Is the face that
Brings a smile
Or more than a few.
It is not always
That I see you,
But
When the moment arises,
It pleases me.

This is written for
You.

Save this.
Someone comes to
Mind?
Matters not living or
Gone,
Baby born,
A sibling, an uncle
Or maybe an aunt
Can’t forget the
Grands
younger and elder
There is a friend,
Dear and sweet.
A husband A wife
A Love Like No Other.

Who do U see?

It’s funny how something simple can trigger a memory of a friend or loved one.
I especially like “It is not always
That I see you,
But
When the moment arises,
It pleases me.”
Nice one!

I absolutely love the beginning. All too often we take for granted those in our lives, seen as an inconvenience in our mindless rush we should definitely take time to appreciate

A unique one. I love the question you added in the end. Yes, a face came to mind, and I did see this face every day too, in the traffic, in the kitchen, during a walk, and then now, in your poem. Great job.

Brilliant message, overall a great poem, honestly though I wasn’t overly fond of the one word lines, they seemed to overemphasise those words a bit too much. Still a great message mostly well delivered. Great idea of involving the reader by asking them a question.
