With A Smile That Never Fades

a poem with a story

Her black hair fell softly over her pale shoulders.

Her dress skimmed over the crisp snow when she took a graceful step.

When she smiled the world seemed to light up.

The moon reflected off the little pool of water at the woods edge.

 

Her posture, striding forward, looked strong, proud and she is a beautiful lady who is grateful to be here with a smile that says she is ok.

Sometimes her smile faded, but she would still keep walking, her posture will droop, but she will keep going forward. She needs a hug, just to know someone cares.

 

Her black hair pulled high, her white dress skimming the floor, the train following her down the aisle to the altar. Two beautiful girls holding bouquets of white lilies. Her smile the biggest it has been ever, as she gets married.

 

Rocking on the front porch, silver strands breaking through the tension of the black midnight colour of the hair, which sits softly on her shoulders. She holds her head high, a smile warm enough to melt the snow on the ground.  

She looks up in the sky, and thanks the lord for keeping her safe. With a smile that never fades…

Loved it ^^ How it followed her through her life. Starting off with her young, with a smile that lit up the world. Then even in the second part where things seem to be getting tough for her and yet she moves on, eventually finding her happy life because she kept smiling. Thanks for sharing this. I'd be happy if you could read a poem of mine that tells a story, as well. A few of mine do that. I'd be more than grateful. Either way, love this poem ^^
