I thought of you last night
how the stars twinkled when you smile,
how even though you’re all grown up
you’ve never lost your inner child;
how even though times have been hard
your sense of humor has prevailed,
and even when against all odds
your private outlook’s never failed.
I wish that I could be like you
to spark in others, inner light
you’re the sunshine in our days
and the beacon in our nights.
I felt your presence the other day
through all the problems and the strife,
and thought, how lucky I am to know
someone who adds so much to life.
I want the raw truth, feel free to knock me on my back
What did you think of my title?
How was my language use?
What did you think of the rhythm or pattern or pacing?
How does this theme appeal to you?
How was the beginning/ending of the poem?
Is the internal logic consistent?

I smile at the sentiment
there are just a few people I know who make the world a better place just by existing.
But man, I don’t want to get boring on this, but it does come across a bit Hallmarky, sorry
cheers,
Jess
