She’s A Rainbow
Today, I saw rainbows everywhere
On my poetry booklet
In my empty coffee cup
And my grey clouds
Donned rainbows too!
Thank you, my love
For thoughtfully
Brightening this day
With your ever-lasting smile

Her ever-lasting was incredible 🌝😍
“Her Everlasting Smile” (a Villanelle)
I wonder, was it all worthwhile.
My chest, heavy as never before
Remembering, her everlasting smile.
I look back, on her unfortunate life-style
Being unable to walk and talk anymore
I wonder, was it all worthwhile
I relive, her personal exile.
My throat, swollen and sore
Remembering, her everlasting smile
I hesitate, retracing every mile
My tears, splash on the floor
I wonder, was it all worthwhile
I cringe, behind my happy profile
My heart, has forgotten how to roar
Remembering, her everlasting smile
I sleep alone, awaiting the next trial
My tongue, tired, needs to say more
I wonder, was it all worthwhile
Remembering, her everlasting smile

You call it a Villanelle;
I call it a love letter.
Sublime, dear Ivor. 🕊️
