The Sweetest Girl

Here's to you, the sweetest girl.

 

She’s got thinly spread lips, spindly arms, and fat thighs.

A wrinkly smile and kind creases in her eyes�"

Those unassuming eyes.

 

Plain and true with a frustratingly simple attitude.

There’s no charm in her straightforward manner.

No chase to her heart’s desire.

 

She’s alive and spirited, where everyone can see it.

But more mellow and calm, where everyone can feel it.

Inhale and you can breathe it.

 

The sweetest girl

As it goes without saying, is�"

The sweetest girl.

Interesting portrayal regarding a concept usually, dare I say it, conveyed in such a cliched manner and yet I've never read a poem quite like this one. The message is clear, it's what's inside that counts, as the saying goes. She's content with life, and she lives happily, and that's what makes the sweetest girl, well, sweet. Well done

It's good to 'hear' from you again Tai! Thank you for the review. It's not exactly the most original idea and it's been overused so many times.... yet it came out decently, no?

It really did, again, well done! Glad to hear from you again Summer!

I missed reading your poems.

The description you wrote of the girl is a nice way to put it. She seems like someone everyone would want to know and be around, someone who could make you love her without even trying. Her outside and inner appearance may be different, but when you are beautiful on the inside, that reaches so much further than the outside.

Try not to hate me too much...

What a beautiful summarization of my thoughts. Thank you for sharing.
