Kelly’s Smile
Kelly’s Smile
A balmy Autumn evening
And poet’s words are unveiling
Over twenty wordsmith recitals
Here within the poetry group’s citadel
Black Veil, White Veil, is the allotted theme
A topic of intriguing extremes
Encouraging opposing moonbeams
From the writers imaginative dreams
After the entertaining poetry event
I stroll across to the music bar I frequent
And I hear a singer’s voice extraordinaire
Kelly has a genuine smile, and is a storyteller with flare
Eventually my exciting night, becomes tired embers
And I meet up with fellow poetry group members
The friendly Jeff and Stephanie and there’s happy hugs all-round
Kindly they offer me a lift, and I’m homeward bound
