An Angel Smiled


An angel smiled as she gazed into my eyes lifting my tired soul,

The beauty of this being was so heavenly I nearly lost control,

Her eyes are of an unnamed goddess beautiful beyond all known,

Angelic cheekbones seem to announce her smile as it is shown,

 

Any verse I write about you should be composed to overwhelm,

Each time I look into your eyes my soul reaches a paradise realm,

You’ve taken my breath too many times to express or to explain,

There’s so many little things you do it’s impossible for me to name,

 

That you’ve kept your shape for more than five decades for me,

Is a gift most others don’t understand, appreciate, or try to see,

The wiggle of your walk still excites me as if I remained a teen,

As I said the night we met, you’re the prettiest girl I’ve ever seen.

The end, for Patti by Pat

I love you baby!
